Help with Windows Vista x64 processes
Hello,
I'm running a Gateway LX6810-01 with Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 2.34ghz processor, MCP7AM01G1 mobo, xfx gf6800gt gpu, Antec vp450 psu, 6gb RAM pc6400, and running windows vista home premium x64.
I am having some minor performance issues and was wondering if there's a way I can streamline my processes running. Currently I am running 58 processes and have unchecked everything but 8 items under my start up tab in msconfig. The start up items left are: Realtek Voice Manager by Realtek Semiconductor Corp, HD Audio Control Panel by Realtek Semiconductor, Microsoft Intellipoint by Microsoft Corporation, Microsoft Intellitype Pro by Microsoft Corporarion, swg by Uknown (which says Google Toolbar Notifier in program filesx86 when I mouse over it,) Google Update by Unknown (which is in user>john>appdata>google>update>google update,) Avast Antivirus by Avast software, and Java Platform SE Auto Updater by Oracle Corporation.
I'm also going to ss my process from task manager and put it below.
Another thing I know that needs addressed is my gpu.. I think it's the driver. I say my gpu has an issue because every time windows Vista loads and I get to my desktop the screen flashes about 15 seconds later... for about a second the screen goes black and then the desktop reappears. I am going to start a thread in the graphics section of the forum to address that, though.
I've also cleaned my pc for security stuff with Jacee: Windows Vistax64 Firewall not starting
