Resources
I am having big problems with my Win 98 SE PC having the resources sucked
out of it. Right now, according to the Resource Meter, it is:
System Resources: 32%
User Resources: 32%
GDI Resources: 63%
I usually have to reboot in order to get it back up. Usually, I'm running
Outlook, Outlook Express, and maybe a couple of IE windows. I have 256 RAM.
I don't know what to tweak in order to fix this problem. Here's what is in
my startup:
command: C:\PROGRAM FILES\GRISOFT\AVG6\avgcc32.exe /startup - in my SysTray
command: C:\PROGRA~1\GRISOFT\AVG6\Avgserv9.exe
command: c:\windows\SYSTEM\wucrtupd.exe -startup (Windows Critical Update)
command: DAW9532.EXE (3COM network card)
command: c:\mouse\system\em_exec.exe (mouse)
command: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\hpztsb04.exe (HP DeskJet Taskbar Utility) - in my
SysTray
command: Rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,LoadCurrentPwrScheme
command: Rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,LoadCurrentPwrScheme
command: loadqm.exe (MSN Queue Manager)
command: C:\NKLINE GLOBAL\MODEM BOOSTER\ModemBtr.exe - in my SysTray
command: c:\PROGRA~1\NORTON~1\NAVAPW32.EXE (Norton anti-virus) - in my
SysTray
command: C:\PROGRA~1\SYMNET~1\SNDMON.EXE (Norton Live Update)
command: RUNDLL32.EXE c:\windows\SYSTEM\NvCpl.dll,NvStartup (NVIDIA Media
Center Library)
command: RUNDLL32.EXE c:\windows\SYSTEM\NvMcTray.dll,NvTaskbarInit
command: nwiz.exe /install (NVIDIA nView Wizard)
command: c:\windows\scanregw.exe /autorun (Scan Registry)
command: c:\windows\taskmon.exe (Task Monitor)
command: C:\Program Files\APC\APC PowerChute Personal Edition\mainserv.exe
command: C:\Program Files\APC\APC PowerChute Personal Edition\Display.exe
(APC UPS Status) - in my SysTray
command: C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\MDM.EXE (Machine Debug Manager)
command: mstask.exe (Scheduling Agent) - in my SysTray
command: "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symantec Shared\Script
Blocking\SBServ.exe" -reg
command: C:\PROGRAM FILES\SPYBOT - SEARCH & DESTROY\TeaTimer.exe - in my
SysTray
command: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\OSA9.EXE
command: C:\WINDOWS\RSRCMTR.EXE (Resource Meter) - in my SysTray
command: C:\WINDOWS\DRWATSON.EXE - in my SysTray
Is something listed above sucking up resources? Is there something that I
should uncheck? Is there somewhere else I should be checking? This is
getting so old having to restart.
Thanks for any advice,
Debbie
