I was having the exact same problem. With just 33 processes and calculated 210 MB in actual use, my page file was almost the same size as my 512 MB RAM and even then the computer would be excrutiatingly slow.
After running all spyware, adware, AV programs, nothing changed. I went into System Properties and set the PageFile to 'ZERO', thereby forcing only my 512 MB RAM to be used instead of swapping memory from my Hard Drive. Long story short, I restarted the laptop and now everything is working as smooth as a baby's Bahookie! Best of Luck to you guys.... and please "Share the Tribal Knowledge!" Shawn Butt |
