For some reason or another, anytime I open start menu, then click "All Programs", there is a pause for sometimes one minute before it even shows my apps, and it also creates other things to hang until it appears.
Anyone got any ideas? Ive had this installed before without the issue
Compaq CQ50-139WM Laptop
Windows 7 Build 7048 (64-Bit)
2GB DDR2 PC5300
256MB Intel Graphics 45EG Integrated Video

Hello PotatoMan, and welcome to Seven Forums.
You might see if it is the Visual Effect settings. Uncheck the Animations in the taskbar and Start Menu option to see if that helps. You might also see if this tutorial can help as well.
Hope this helps,
Shawn
Yeah i had tried the menushowdelay, and that was a no go..I just disabled the animations in start menu but still nothing. Its odd because it can be 5 seconds, 30 seconds, or even longer..anything I try to do while its well, doing whatever it is, will not go or will completely unallow me to access anything during that time.
Will that affect any installed apps, drivers put in, or edits to preferences made? (services, startup, etc.)?
The yellow TIP box at the top of the tutorial, at that link, outlines what may be affected to help you out on this.
so far so good..I did the "upgrade" trick u posted..we'll see. Thanks for the help!
Not only did that fix the problem but it actually let me do my WEI also.. 5.6 HD Score too :) Build 7000 only gave me a 2.0. Thanks again!
