My specs are:
250gb sata hard drive
2gb corsair memory pc6400
asus p5w dh delux
core 2 duo e6600 @ stock
ati 1900xt 256mb
Creative x-fi sound card
Whenever I do certain things, such as "unlock" the windows taskbar, the taskbar and a few other things such as windows media player freeze for over 2 minutes. Also, when I shut down my computer, it takes about 30 seconds to actually shut down, and many times 3 or more programs must be ended manually to finish the shutdown.
It starts slower than my friends computer, who has 1gb of ddr pc2700 ram and a p4 Celeron @ less than 1.5ghz, starts about 40 seconds faster than mine (mine takes 1 minute and 45 seconds to restart last time I actually checked.)
Sometimes, when my computer has been on for a long time, and I open something such as My Documents, the window looks slightly different, and is missing all of the windows options on the left hand side. I can't click the icons but i can close the window, and i have to restart to fix the problem.
I've googled a few things that helped speed up the computer, but not fix the few annoying glitches.
Thanks,
Cal.
