iks 0 Posted August 2, 2001 Hello there... I am encountering bad performance in my WindowsXP RC2. Is is 'normal' or not? I mean: [*]Logon screen images fades and moves very slov (like framerate=5) [*]Mouse cursor stops from time to time [*]If simple task is run, performance monitor shows high rates - CPU usage (Kernel Times) is very high [*]... [/list:u] My hardware: [*]PentiumIIIEB with 256 Megs of RAM [*]RivaTNT2 Graphic Card (32MB) Model64 (Yeah ) [*]Abit BX133 with ATA100-Raid Controller [*]IBM 20GB 7200RPM Harddrive connected to onboard HPT370 controller [*]4GB Harddrive to Primary IDE controller [*]Pioneer DVD (Slave), Cretive CDRW(Master) to Secondary IDE controller [*]Creative SB Live! Player 1024 [*]3Com Network Card [*]USB ISDN Device [*]WinTV Hauppauge TV Capture Device [*]... [/list:u] Well... What could be wrong? Share this post Link to post
Silent-IQ 0 Posted August 2, 2001 did you check if your graphics card has a collision with any other hardware? Share this post Link to post
evil Homer 0 Posted August 2, 2001 I think its the RAID. XP doesn't like anything running off my RAID at all, that why I have it installed on a seperate ATA 33 (Yeah I know!!!) The symptoms you describe are exactly what I had when I installed beta 2485/86/95 on my RAID Homer Share this post Link to post
