Chrome and IE loading pages very slowly
Hello,
I have Sony Vaio Model name VPC119GX (Windows 7 Professional-SP 1, 64-bit, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU, 8.00 GB). My browsers (IE and Chrome) have become very, very slow; sometimes, nothing happens. Tests using speakeasy stall about half way through the down load part; I do not get to the upload. This is true on wireless and direct connections. My other two computers (both XP) load pages with no difficultly and pass the speakeasy test. I have tried several things such as restoring the defaults in IE, doing a complete virus scan using McAfee, Running Vaio One Click Care, Advance Care 5, and the following steps:
1) Launch the VAIO Care application ( Press the assist button)
2) Expand Troubleshooting
3) Click on Network & Wireless
4) Click on "Windows Network Diagnostics"
Nothing I have done has helped. I should mention that the rest of the the computer runs well, including email; I have trouble with downloads and Skype calls.
Thanks for your time.
Tom
