Petit Prince Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I have a really strange computer problem and no idea what I can do. When I'm typing my computer is just to slow and suddenly stops and then I have to wait abut a minute till I see the things I have written. It also happens that the mouse doesn't move for some time. I changed the mouse and the keyboard. After that it worked for about two hour but now I have the same problem again. Can anybody help me? :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigio Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 It's your computer. Seems like you don't have enough RAM (Random Access Memory), which means your computer, if too much is requested of it at one time, will lock up until it can get its priorities in order. I'm sure Best Buy and Future Shop sell RAM sticks (USB 2.0 plugins), but they are mighty pricey. Go to your local computer shop and ask them how much a memory upgrade might cost.

auhsor Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 If your computer isn't ancient (more than say 8 years old) then this shouldn't happen at all. I would say that you might have a virus or spyware problem. Make sure you scan your computer for viruses and use Adaware and Spybot Search & Destroy to look for spyware.

I have both programmes on my computer. Do I have to scan it myself or does the program do this automatically? I've been told it does. :/ And, no, my computer is not older than eight years.

auhsor Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 You should do the scans yourself. I don't think those two programs do it automatically (well I think Adaware does if you buy it). Make sure you update the definitions so the programs are up to date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
