Hi guys,
I posted on here a day or two ago about a problem I had. I thought I had fixed it but it turns out I didn't. Here is my original post...
Hey everyone!
Long story so I'll try to be brief with lots of info lol.
I have 2 computers. One is custom made by a friend, dual core processors (AMD) at 2.0ghz each, 4gb of RAM, basic video card g-force but not sure how high quality (I know it's worse than my other computer) and has 3 dvd drives. The other computer is a dell computer: dual core (intel) at 1.80ghz, about 2gb of RAM, and a great video card (intel), 1 dvd drive.
Now, the dell computer had been always faster at everything. I finally realized it was due to the video card not being able to support all the graphics of vista on custom computer so I went in and edited the advanced display/visual function properties or whatever it's called where you can select to display or not display certain visual operations like that transparency look, showing contents of a window while you're moving it, shading behind the mouse pointer, etc. I disabled most of them and suddenly the computer started working faster. Yay for me! Before I figured this out, the computer was constantly crashing. I thought fixing those settings would help, but it didn't, not really. So I ended up uninstalling everythign that was recently installed and then re-installing only the programs I needed. This seemed to do the trick since it's been 2 days and it hasn't crashed (used to crash/freeze at least once or twice a day).
But my problem now is that the internet on custom computer is suddenly....really....r e a l l y..... S L O W!
The dell computer is still fast as hell. I have rogers (we're in canada)... not sure what the level is called but it's the 60GB bandwidth one.
So.... anybody know why the internet could be slow?
No viruses (scanned twice with ESET NOD32).
Any ideas??
That was my original post.
So I ended up using a command prompt to fix the internet. That worked and it was fine for a full day (and I posted on it and someone marked it as solved) but unfortunately, the computer just crashed again today. It stops working and goes to a blue screen that says it's preparing for a crash dump. This is what used to happen before when it would crash.
Any help?
