Can you help me with my PC problem? Have, of course, been googling and trying certain things, but no fix yet. Windows 7 Home Premium.
- reduced speed - some graphics look slightly less slick (e.g. fonts more pixelated) - Flash video halting and/or dropping frames

sounds like a graphic card drivers problem; though: the reduced speed is in general (starting windows, opening folders/browser, software, etc), or just while watching videos? ![]() | |

Most computers can restore to a date when things were running well.

In the case, backup your personal files and reinstall with the start up disk. FOOLS multiply when WISE Men & Women are silent. | |

i think i kind of hate flashplayer. i have a LOT of trouble with auto updates on that program, it sets itself up; i read steve jobs condemned it to the deepest parts of PC hell. i'd uninstall it if i could but it's so freaking necessary on the internets ....
. Steve Jobs hated Flash. Hated it. And not just a little bit. "Flash is a spaghetti-ball piece of technology that has lousy performance and really bad security problems," he said, according to biographer Walter Isaacson in his book published earlier this month. On Wednesday, Adobe announced it will no longer be developing Flash, its media-player tool, for mobile devices. More than a few bloggers have noted the news would have been vindication for the late Apple co-founder, who felt betrayed by Adobe more than a decade ago. . . . http://www.cnn.com/2011/11/09/tech/mobile/flash-steve-jobs/index.htmlhttp://www.cnn.com/2011/11/09/tech/mobile/flash-steve-jobs/index.html

i once accidentally 'updated' to a virus-laden version of flashplayer. suffice it to say - beware the pop-ups that demand you upgrade to the new version of flash, go to the official page for updates. if a pop-up upgrade happened to you, have your PC checked. hope things work out! | |

Every few days i run this utility program called glary utilities. It's a program that cleans up temporary files, start ups, shortcuts and old registry entries. It works good and might help. Also you can use the task manager to see which programs and processes you're running when things start acting up. You can try closing a program or process tree(in task manager), to see if the problem goes away, once the program is closed. Something running in the background(and starts up automatically) could be causing the problem and taxing your CPU. It also could be a ram memory problem or a display/apperance or personalization, problem. That's in addition to what JoeTyler said about the graphics card.
The sucky thing is it could be almost anything that's causing the problem. Its probably something simple though. Rest in Peace Bettie Boo. See u soon. | |

Sounds like your hard drive is overloaded and killing your video card. They are all connected to the motherboard so when one is on overkill everything else attached gets burned out. You may need a new video card + clear your cache and temp files so increases processing times. Does your fan come on often? Is your PC loud?

Get a Mac. You're welcome. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |
