KenB Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Can you try Safemode with Networking please ? Click Here This will load Windows with minimal drivers and Sevices. you should still have internet access. Give it a try with known sites that cause problems.

karlosthejackel Posted May 7, 2015 Author Posted May 7, 2015 ive done the safe mode and its much better.......better by far in fact! Quote
KenB Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Hi again It must be either one of the Services or something in the Start-up causing the system to slow down. It is a long process to find what it is I am afraid. Take a look here - click here You need to look at "Selective Startup" There are 2 boxes that will be ticked at the moment. 1. Load System Services 2. Load Start-up Items. Uncheck "Load Start-up Items" and leave "Load System Services" ticked. Now restart normally. Try the problem websites again. If they are ok then it is an item in the Start-up causing the problem. [ not Services ] If there is a problem with the websites go back to msconfig and swap the ticks over [ just to check that we are correct ] Restart normally. If the machine is slow now then you have confirmed where the problem lies. The link explains better than I can. Once you have decided where the problem lies then you have to locate the specific item ............this is the slow bit. Speccy showed the Services that were running when you provided the details. Task Manager [ CTRL+ALT+DEL] will tell you which Start-up Items are ticked at the moment. You may want to make a note of these before you start the elimination process. Let me know how you get on.

karlosthejackel Posted May 18, 2015 Author Posted May 18, 2015 with the start up items unchecked its exactly the same, but with system services unchecked I cannot get on the net as the wireless is disabled Quote
KenB Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 Hi Karlos Try enabling WLAN Auto Config from Services [ or Wired AutoConfig if not using wireless ] In msconfig you may need to click on the Services button and put a check against WLAN Auto Config. You will probably need a restart. It could be a service that is causing your problem.

karlosthejackel Posted May 23, 2015 Author Posted May 23, 2015 Ive enabled WLAN but the wireless still doesnt work. Ive gone into computer management and its lusted as automatic. Ive tried to 'start' the service but comes up with an error 1068 saying it failed to start. Im so bored of this computer im just thinking of buying another. Its ridiculous. One thing i will say is its due 100's of updates now. I disabled the updates after a month or two as they came everytime i turned the thing on Quote
KenB Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 Hi Karlos, I was hoping to avoid additional services but this is obviously not the case. Put a tick by these as well. Then restart and see if you can connect. DHCP Client Network Connection Device Auto-Setup uPNP Remote Procedure Call Workstation Network Location Awareness Re the updates - It may be better if you did these manually a bunch at a time. Very often - if there are lots of updates - installing all at once can cause problems for some reason.

karlosthejackel Posted May 25, 2015 Author Posted May 25, 2015 Updates are all done-took nearly a day! Ive ticked the boxes you suggest but still no wireless! Quote
karlosthejackel Posted May 25, 2015 Author Posted May 25, 2015 What i have noticed this morning is ive unticked the start up option,appy and ok. restarted the comp. when i go back to msconfig its back to normal start up. Maybe the issue is in start up after all Quote
KenB Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 Hi again Try this: Go back to msconfig - and tick the box next to "Diagnostic Startup" > Apply > OK Reboot. This will load essential services and startup items. Quote There is an email going around offering processed pork - gelatin - and salt in a can ......this is simply SPAM !!

karlosthejackel Posted May 25, 2015 Author Posted May 25, 2015 I tried that last week it disables wireless! Quote
KenB Posted May 25, 2015 Posted May 25, 2015 Hi Karlos Strange. Please enable "Normal Startup" - then boot up in Safe Mode with Networking. Let me know if you can access the net now please.

karlosthejackel Posted May 25, 2015 Author Posted May 25, 2015 It would appear not. It did used to work because earlier in this thread i used it in safe mode and it was much much faster Quote
KenB Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 Hi Karlos This is very odd. Boot up normally. Windows Key + S Type in .... services .... click on "View Local Services" Scroll down the list. It should look like this ( some running etc ) This is a selection from mine. Quote There is an email going around offering processed pork - gelatin - and salt in a can ......this is simply SPAM !!

karlosthejackel Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 What am i looking for in services? My list is huge compared to yours. There are some that are disabled.. Remote registry Routing and remote access Smart card Internet connection sharing Net tcp port sharing service The rest are either auto or manual Quote
karlosthejackel Posted May 30, 2015 Author Posted May 30, 2015 Ive made the laptop better by going into internet options and doing the reset. Its much better but still is slow at responding on some web pages Quote
KenB Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Hi Karlos What results do you get from Speedtest ? http://www.speedtest.net/ Wait for the "Begin Test" button to appear ......be aware there is a blue "Start Now" at the top that you do not want.
