not a ram problem then

have you fixed the proxy server, and tried without the battery in?

dick_turpin

should the proxy server be ticked or not? it refers to port 2.

unticked, everything in the lan settings box should be unticked

and never dial a connection in the previous screen should be selected

this problem only happens with youtube? what about iplayer?

when it happens, the machine is so slow, you can't type?

have you run ccleaner?

is the c: drive full?

if the vent is on the bottom, does it go slow if you lift it off the desk, ie allow more ventilation

everything seems to take an eternity, even a page refresh.
C drive only 10% used. (300gb)
will try iplayer......

if you reboot, and go onto youtube, does everything take an eternity

when it takes an eternity, does it go back to normal if you close the browser


has it been into suspend mode since you booted

is it just when you are playing video

have you run ccleaner

is the vent clear of table/fluff/blockages

does it have a nvidia graphics card or intel?

is it the same on a wired ethernet connection

iplayer as youtube, very disjointed and 75-85% cpu by iexplore.exe
