General Low Performance (without gaming) Hey all,
Well I added My computers Information with my account so I won't post again
the problem is that Aero themes slows down my computer although there is nothing
wrong with my hardware, I downloaded the Nvidia 186.81_notebook_win7_winvista_32bit_international_whql
and installed it (it enhanced speed a little but not for long after restarting couple of times it got slower and now even any video I play the video is slower than the audio
and any program I open is slow and has a periodic glitch every few seconds that you can see in the loading icon of the windows pointer
anyway I snapshot the ram, cpu and harddisk

What is this registrybooster.exe. That looks suspicious to me. Did you install any "enhancements"? If yes, get rid of them. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway - 2 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista and Windows7, sometimes Ubuntu and Fedora CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to 2.5GHz Quad Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse terrible devices, who wants them Hard Drives 5x HDD, 2x SSD, 6x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |

also I have Kaspersky Anti-virus 6 Registry boosters, registry defraggers, and third party tuneup and enhancement software are pure snake oil. At best they do not work and clutter up your system. At worst they can definitely screw up your system and degrade performance. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Home built OS Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit CPU Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz Motherboard ASUS P4P800-VM Motherboard Chipset: Intel 865G + ICH5 Memory 2.50 GB RAM Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS Sound Card SoundMax Integrated Digital Audio (Chip) Monitor(s) Displays ViewSonic VX 1962 wm Screen Resolution 1680 X 1050 Keyboard Microsoft Comfort Curve Keyboard 2000 v10 USB Mouse Logitec optic USB Cooling Fan based Hard Drives Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 80 GB

If you do uninstall Kaspersky, use the proper kaspersky removal tool. Else you may get new problems when you install MSE or whatever. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number HP, Dell, Gateway - 2 laptops and 2 desktops OS Vista and Windows7, sometimes Ubuntu and Fedora CPU from 1.6GHz Duo to 2.5GHz Quad Monitor(s) Displays 2x HP w2207 Keyboard with trackball - no mices Mouse terrible devices, who wants them Hard Drives 5x HDD, 2x SSD, 6x Externals Internet Speed DSL 6000 |

Are you sure? First : do you want me to disable kaspersky or uninstall it?
second: if I uninstall the anti-virus what security would I have | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Dell Inspiron 1520 / PP22L OS windows 7 ultimate, 32-bit CPU Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7500 @ 2.20GHz Memory 3.00 GB Graphics Card GeForce 8600M GT, 256MB Dedicated, 1279MB Shared Sound Card Microsoft High Definition Audio Device Monitor(s) Displays 15.4 Hard Drives WDC WD1200BEVS-75UST0 ATA Device |
