Problem for HP Pavilion? a1410y (RB042AV) PC Desktop

My pc rapidly got slow and says half of ram in use all time




By jjdd1 on Mar 10, 2009

" "
I have a hp with a 3.2ghz processor and 1.5gigs of ram. It has been getting slower in the last two or three weeks. It is saying that half of the ram is in use when nothing is running. I have one stick of 500mb and one 1.0gb so I know its not a bad stick of ram. I have avast anti virus, tune up utilities and a malware program.
I have also been geting a pop up when I shut it down it says MCCWSAWindow not responding.
If any one has better program ideas paid or free no matter.
I hope some one can help me with the ram issue it has to be why it's slowing down or at least a big part of it.
Thanks.

The speed of the ram in your computer is not the same, you should the same speed each other for example if you use 1gig of ram you should have an another 1 gig. Not all the mother boards can manage at different speed of RAMS. About on the other software, that's good, that's no problem on the computer.

also try malwarebytes. download it, update it, reboot into safe mode and run it. you should also get startup control panel, it provide a better way to see what runs when Windows begins and allows you to deselect programs so they do not run.

and for a way to run through about an hour, if you have a second computer start the task manager on the slow machine and using the second one lookup the processes that are running.

you must have too many startup processes going at once.

get ashampoo win optimizer 4 its free and you can limit your running processes. It explains what each one does so you won't make a mistake. it also has a lt of other useful stuff that comes in handy.
