Poor performance is experienced.
Cause Solution
Too many applications running. 1. Close unnecessary applications to free up memory.
2. Add more memory. Some applications run in the
background and can be closed by right-clicking on their
corresponding icons in the task tray. To prevent these
applications from launching at startup, go to Start > All
Programs > Accessories > Run (Windows Vista and
Windows 7) and type msconfig. On the Startup tab of
the System Configuration Utility, clear applications that
you do not want to launch automatically.
Some software applications, especially games, are stressful
on the graphics subsystem
1. Lower the display resolution for the current application
or consult the documentation that came with the
application for suggestions on how to improve
performance by adjusting parameters in the application.
2. Add more memory.
3. Upgrade the graphics solution.
Computer needs to be restarted. Restart the computer.
