Laptop problem.

The system is Windows xp home sp3 T2250@1.73GHz 0.99 GB ram,auto update is on,not sure about how to check the page size but interested in Donnie's comment about Orange everywhere as I thought that had been removed ? Is that likely to cause such a problem ?

It's just that the France Telecom Routing Table Service is still there. You can get rid of it.

C:\PROGRA~1\COMMON~1\France Telecom\Shared Modules\FTRTSVC\0\FTRTSVC.exe

Is a Factory Restore out of the question?

Do you have the same Wireless entries on your Hijack This log?

Hi Donnie,
I will remove the France telecom routing table,I would consider a factory restore once I have spoken to my daughter but I will probably need a full post of instructions from one of you guys to get me through it IF you have the time.
Thanks

jock - your system spec is certainly quick enough, so it's deffo software that's causing the slowdown...follow donnie's advice ref the Orange stuff, and see how you go

p.s. the page file setting can be found by:- control panel>system>advanced>Performance-settings>advanced>Virtual Memory-change. Set this to System-managed size. Will need a reboot to appy it (it will tell you so).

Gunjack,
Thanks for your time and replies,I will reset the page settings,I've already carried out Donnie's suggestion,hopefully this will help speed things up if not he did mention doing a factory restore ?

How come one machine has XP and the other Vista? Did hers come with XP or Vista?

Hi Donnie,
Daughters came with xp already installed when she went to uni and then about a year later i decided to get myself a laptop and it came with vista.

The main thing with a Factory Restore is that she will lose any information stored. So you'll need to make a copy of any important information.
