Event Viewer - Diagnostics-Performance

[markvis14]

Hello everyone,

I just checked Event Viewer and for me it shows me a lot of warnings.
Each warning contains:

The Desktop Window Manager is experiencing heavy resource contention.
Scenario : Video memory resources are over-utilized and there is thrashing happening as a result. Reducing number of running programs and open windows may help resolve this condition.

My videocard is OC'ed quite a lot. Could that be the cause?
I got a (old I know) GTS450 running at 968/1936/2075

Regards, Mark

Hello,

Here is the zip file you requested.
You can ignore the Network Location Awareness error, I turned that service off.

I actually can't find any performance errors in that log for some reason.
