Memory Woes!!!

prasadzmultiplex · Apr 12, 2005

My System has 192 MB of RAM but it SHows only 191.Also the System's Pretty
Sluggish at times and some medium-duty applications like Working out
Excel formulae & macros too take Long time to compile.I don't use my PC
for Gaming or 3D modelling.OS is WIndows 98.I dfreagment regularly
and have McAfee as the AV.I BAsically use it for Browsing & Clean the
cache after every Session.I also Weed out Spyware etc Using Both SpyBot
& Ad-Aware.All Definitions are uptodate And even Windows Updates are all
Upto Date.

Adding to the Excel woes is that Sometimes Powerpoint Hangs and when
I use DAP,the Screen Color Changes Somewhat.(The Browser Window
becomes shaded & all Blurred,Taskbar icons become Black etc)
Degaussing Does'nt work.
Is there any Benchmarking tool that Will generate a report by which I can
know what is wrong and where?

Some Friend Suggested that the system might be infected by a Resident
Trojan that might be Causing the System Sluggishness but McAfee Did'nt
Find anything on Scanning.

RAM is shown as 191MB because another 1MB is shared by the onboard graphics controller. i think you have Intel 810 chipset mobo.

Get CCleaner and CleanUp! and run them in SAFE mode and delete all the files they find.

Get TrojanHunter Trial and run it and select all the Hard Disk Partitions and click "Full Scan".

Download HijackThis and unzip it to dedicated folder (like C:\HijackThisFolder\hijackthis.exe).
Then run it and click the button Do a System scan and save log file. HijackThis will perform a scan and saves the log file as hijackthis.log in the same folder where it is installed and it also opens the file automatically.
Copy the entire contents of the file and post it.

hpotter606 · Apr 13, 2005

I thinks you are using too much of security sofware.
It happend to me too. I was using NAV 2005, ZA firewall, Spybot, system mechanic. So the system got really slow.
Now i am using NAV 2004 and MS antispyware and windows firewall. So its pretty fast now. Earlier i used to defragment regularly. Now i dont defragment at all and still my computer works fine. I have turned off windows update too. So i dont do anything you do. I even install games. The only difference is i have 256 MB ram. It shows only 221 MB ram.

prasadzmultiplex · Apr 13, 2005

I Only Have McAfee Security Center & Nothing Else.
Though I use SpyBot & AdAware for internet security.
That's alll.....

Reboot in SAFE ( Press F8 Key just before Windows starts up when you switch on the System, and from the menu choose "Safe mode" ) mode and then close all applcications. Run only HijackThis and select/check the red colored entry above. Then click "Fix".
Reboot to Normal mode.

Also, perform System File Checking once. Go to Start> Run and type sfc and press ENTER. Here click "Settings" and select the option "Check for deleted files" and click OK. Then click the radio button "Scan for altered files" and clikc "Start". If it finds any Corrupt/Missing files, you choose to RESTORE the files from installation CD ROM or Files.

Boot in SAFE mode and close all applications and run ToolBarCop and right-click and delete the items inside red box.

Swatkatji,
I am Unable to Boot into Safe mode.Whenever I press F8 while Bootup,
The "Boot Device Selection" menu opens up.I see the list as:

Hard Drive
CD-ROM or Other removable Device
Network Boot
Boot on Lan
<Exit>

and I have to select one of the above options.......

I restarted almost 6-7 Times but to no avail.I also tried the Ctrl Key.....
Is there no other way to boot into Safe mode?
Also Can't the Process Outlined by u be done in Normal Mode?

I am sorry that I am asking so many Q's and Hope u Don'Mind.
Thanks for what you have done for me till now.....

swatkat · Apr 15, 2005

Ok, you can do the removal using ToolBarCop in Normal Mode, but close all Browsers and Programs.

Did that Swatkatji and Now it seems that my PC is fine.Altho it is more of a Psychological thing,I think it is ok now.

Now it remains to see how it will be under some HEavy-Duty Apps....

Memory Woes!!!
