System freezing?
 

I only reformatted my machine 2 days ago and already it freezes for about 5 to 10 seconds every few minutes or so. Is there any programme I can use to see what process is causing this?

When I use Task Manager, the 'Performance' tab shows the CPU usage peaking to 100% and then drops but if I keep the 'Process' tab open, nothing shows up as using any more than about 5% although there are plenty of aplications listed.

Edit - I've just tried uninstalling NAV 2004 and *so far* my machine hasn't frozen, I really hope that's not the cause....

could well be norton :( , did you put xpsp2 back on ?????????? , and did you know there is a beta of nav 2005 kicking around , i am using it and it appears to be fine :erm: , so far anyway :disturbd:

Re: System freezing?
 

Yeah I'm using XPsp2. I uninstalled NAV 2004 but I have an old copy of NIS 2002 kicking around which is apparently far less resource-hungry. I installed it and *so far* things seen to be a lot better...

My system was locking up with NAV 2004 pro quite a lot....

But since I reverted to 2003 pro it's been ok.

I hope you manage to sort your computer problems out :)

Perhaps you could merge them all into a super Russ' PC problems thread ;):D

What did I tell you the other day?
It's BETA software... ;)

Re: System freezing?
 

I have SP2 installed, and I find it faster and more stable than SP1 :D

Re: System freezing?

Sorry, but I see just so many people having problems with Norton that my first response to anyone now is remove it.
