R400 XP to Win7 OSD and Wake issues

Hi All,
I recently upgraded to Win7(32bit) for XP. I was not able to install HOTKEYS (OSD).
Thinkpad Hotkey V:3.87; On Screen Display v:6.71,
as "An error occured while copling file shtctky.dll" "Cannot coply file to destination directory."
Also when ever my laptop goes to SLEEP mode , its not resumeing that is wakeup. Then I need to force fully Shutdown and Start again.
FYI: I had installed all the updates, both Win7 and lenovo. (Volume MUTE hard key's is not working)
( no issues with XP)
Kindly advice.

I can't add value, but I can confirm other issues with CAD workflows on Win7 (we're on x64 though). We use a workflow step to direct the embedded browser to a URL when the call ringing event happens. This seems to work, but after time, will simply stop firing. TAC says it's "custom workflow" which they equate to "development" which in turn means "go talk to a partner". I think we can all agree that if you design a piece of functionality to be customizable/flexible, that doesn't give you the right to carte blanche not suport it just because your customers are using it within designed spec. It's basically like them saying "this feature is perfect, can't have bugs, and if you have issues, it's something you did wrong".
Sorry, ranting, but I'm glad I'm not the only UCCX-er out there experiencing CAD workflow woes on Win7.

Formating to Win7 VECD and driver issues

I have recently formated my booklet 3g to win7 vecd for enterprise issues.
After reinstalling all the drivers I've found that just the 3G option modem usb driver doesn't installs correctly, the driver listed from the nokia->support webpage.
Eitherway, in the option webpage, with my IMEI i cannot find the method to download the globetrotter connect 3.1 since it is a "secured" file. I have also tried to download the software that my mobile provider gives to me, but it doesn't work neither. Also tried to install the driver from the option webpage for the option 382E embedded device, and still is not recogniced...
I have my sim inside the SIM slot... but in the device administrator from windows 7, its says that there is an "unknown device" under the USB tab.
I don't know what shall I do now in order to find a solution for this.
Thanks in advance for any possible solution
Regards
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Up to today, I've tried multiple choices in order to make this work.
Still find in the Device Adminsitrator: "unknown device", under the USB controllers. I expect this to be the 3G/GPS modem, but not sure, since is the only thing not working still on my laptop.
Ive tried using drivers version 5.1.32, 5.1.33 even a driver for 382 made for a laptop Acer Timeline, with no success...
Thing is I have tried also uninstalling the unknown device driver, and rebooting computer, but still comes back the same driver... this done with all the drivers downloaded so far.
Under the drivers folder for the "official nokia-option" set, appears some like:
GtGps.inf
gthsmdm.inf
gthsndis.inf
I've tried to installed them manually but then, the device gets stuck with no response. I'm starting to believe that maybe the usb modem is broken, or doesn't support the windows 7 enterprise edition. But that is pretty strange, since is a 32 bit edition, and all version are based on the same type of software... then starting to believe the first thing.
My booklet is branded with Spanish Movistar provider, and I have a Movistar SIM into the slot, so I should have no problems of SIM locks or anything like that (even it doesn't even recognice the modem).
This is kind of frustrating since is the only thing left for me to have the booklet working great

M93p BIOS issue: PowerOff not correct if Enhanced Power Saving Mode Disabled and Wake on Lan Enabled

Hi Levnovo support team, Recently I bought a M93p tiny(10AAA05MTW)(BIOS revision FBKT56A)and installed with Ubuntu 13.10 myself.Then tried to enable wake on lan for my tiny. The followings are my test result. 1. Enhanced Power Saving Mode Enabled, no mateter what is Wake On Lan setting PowerOff system is OK. 2. Enhanced Power Saving Mode Disable and Wake On Lan Disabled PowerOff system is OK. 3. Enhanced Power Saving Mode Disabled and Wake On Lan Primary or Automatic PowerOff system is NG. When I tried to power off system, it always can poweroff(LEDs on front all off) then POWER ON again in 2 or 3 seconds. I cannot accept this test result ,system should poweroff not reboot again. It's really hard to understand why enabling Wake on Lan will affect power off function. I tried the same procedures with my another M92p(3212A16)(BIOS revision 9SKT70AUS), and it works well.

Did you ever get a fix for this?Having the same issue on 3 of 6 machines that just arrived.

Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only. However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is alr

Generally when creating a Word file from either a Mac or Win7 pc and opening it on two different machines (either one first) it always prompts that the file is open and will be opened as read only.
However opening a CSS file does not prompt that it is already open on or from any machine which is causing code edits to be lost.
What we found from out testing:
- The file can be saved from one user to the server and WILL NOT PROMPT on other machines until the saving machine has the Dreamweaver program closed completely
- The file can be closed and Dreamweaver minimised to the launch bar but it still will not register on other machines that it has been changed.
- Also, until the Dreamweaver program is closed on the machines, it will continue to open it's saved version of the file.
Example Scenario:
- User 1 opens test.css (which is 2000 lines) and adds some code to the end of the file to bring it up to 2500 lines
- Meanwhile User 2 opens test.css as well (opens as 2000 lines as User 1’s edits have not yet been saved) and adds in code to bring it to 2300 lines
- User 1 saves his file and closes it - but Dreamweaver is still open.
- User 2 also saves his file and leaves Dreamweaver open.
- The server will report the size and last edit of the file the same as User 2 as he was the last person to save it (and if you open from the Win7 Machine it will show as User 2’s 2300 line version)
- If User 1 then open's the file again (from either the 'recent' in Dreamweaver OR clicking on the file directly in Finder...which version opens.... The version that User 1 saved! Not the true version on the server, but the version that User 1 edited and saved with 2500 lines in it.
- Same for User 2, he will open 'his' version with 2300 lines in.
Other information:
- Files are opened directly from the server
- Sometimes the users will save incrementally and re-open
- Most of the time users will save incrementally and keep the files open
- The users will never not save incrementally and just save when closing the file once finished
- The users are usually working on the files all day
- It is always the bottom lines of code that are lost. It could be a case of the two versions being mixed up and cutting off the newly added lines based on the line count (possibly).
It is as if Dreamweaver is holding a cache of the version locally and then only properly looking back to the server when it has been completely closed. It is very difficult to see how the server is causing such an impact on these files, there are very few logs which are giving any indication to the root cause of the problems.
Anyone know if this is a known issue?
Is there a way that there can be a featured implemented on the server that doesn't allow another user to open a file if it is already open on another machine?
Thanks

Your server file handling has nothing, and really nothing to do with Adobe software. If files don't get locked for (over-)writing and/or lose connection to the program opening them, then your server is misconfigured. It's as plain and simple and that. Anything from "known file types"/ file associations not being set correctly, MIME types being botched, crooked user privileges and file permissions, missing Mac server extensions, delayed file writing on the server, generic network timeout issues and what have you. Either way, you have written a longwinded post with no real value since you haven't bothered to provide any proper technical info, most notably about the alleged server. Either way, the only way you can "fix" it is by straightening out your server and network configuration, not some magic switch in Adobe's software.

Battery and Sleep issues. Is this "normal"?

Hey guys, ever since day 1 My new MBP has been experiencing the sleep issue where in sleep the battery would lose about 1-2%/hour. I would go to sleep with the battery at 100%, and wake up to only about 87%. Also, when it was new the battery had about 4650 for full charge capacity, now its showing only 4540 after 10 cycles!!! Is this normal? Please help my MBP is less than 2 weeks old I have owned the previous MBP model, and the battery life during sleep was considerably better than this, and also it took less time to charge the battery!
Charge Information:
Charge remaining (mAh): 3463
Fully charged: No
Charging: Yes
Full charge capacity (mAh): 4540
Health Information:
Cycle count: 10
Condition: Good
Battery Installed: Yes
Amperage (mA): 881
Voltage (mV): 12070
*I have also just updated the upgrade to 10.5.6. Will update and report if this will help with the sleep/battery issue.
Thanks for your help!

Reset the SMC (System Management Controller) and re-calibrate the Battery then see how it behaves ...

ITunes can't connect to Apple TV sometimes after sleep and wake up

Hi!
There are any issues to find in the discussions depending on problems between the ATV and iTunes but no solution helps me to solve the following problem till now.
I am using a Mac mini (middle 2011) as a central storage for multimedia data. The exact description of the network can you find further down.
The problem is that iTunes sometimes can't connect to the Apple Tv via Airplay. There is a window open what tells me that iTunes try to connect to ATV. But it doesn't work.
After determine iTunes completely (normal closing doesn't work because of that open window) and restart it, it will work probably.
Itunes is connecting to ATV via Airplay immediately.
Sometimes it works for any days with a view sleep and wake up procedures. Sometimes the problem appears while I'm listen to music after any minutes of starting.
I send the mini and the ATV to sleep with the remote of the ATV or let it go to sleep alone. To wake up ATV and mini I push a button on the remote.
Following components are working in my network:
- router FritzBox 7390 from AVM (2,4 and 5 GhZ at the same time)
- Mac mini (middle 2011) connected via Wlan
- two Airport Express with connected loudspeakers in various rooms (Wlan)
- Apple TV (third generation) connected with home cinema via HDMI and with the network via Wlan
- Telekom entertain setbox for TV connected via LAN over Wlan bridge
I have tried to use the whole system with an Airport Extrem as router for wlan but the problem was the same.
I suppose it could be a problem with DHCP Lease or the Bonjour? What can I do?
Last but not least...the devices have installed the newest firmware or software versions.
Thanks a lot for support!

i bit the bullet and re-associated library on ATV. On atv, setting/computers; current library was grayed out, clicking creates a warning that all media on ATV will be lost, it takes its time to earase the disk, then an option to connect to itunes becomes available just like fresh setup. ATV produced a code to enter into itunes. itunes complained that it cannot communicate on port 3689; googleupdate.exe was using this port; disabled googleupdate; rebooted everything for good measure. so now i'm waiting for 100GB of home movies and music to sync to ATV (thanks apple!). one thing that got me stumbled - when ATV showed up, there were not tabs for music, movies, podcast, etc, only settings and photos; solution: deselect 'automatic sync' by selecting 'custom sync' in the settings tab.

You need Snow Leopard w. 10.6.x to get 3.0.
If it works and no issues fine though probably the first time I have read someone did.

ITunes 9, Apple TV, and AirTunes issues

It seems that iTunes 9 on my iMac has two issues, possibly related, both of which are very irksome. Both issues appear after the computer wakes from sleep, leading me to think they are symptoms of the same problem.
Issue #1 is that the AppleTV keeps vanishing from the list of devices. iTunes knows about the AppleTV, the AppleTV is on the network and can stream from iTunes, but the device is missing and hence sync won't work. I've checked the firewall log and the AppleTV is being accepted for incoming connections, so it's not a firewall issue. I've reset the AppleTV, reset the connection between iTunes and the AppleTV, resynced all my content and the problem persists.
I've found two ways to fix this issue: restart iTunes, or go to Preferences : Apple TV, uncheck "Look for Apple TV", close Preferences, open Preferences and recheck the same selection. After a 2-3 second delay, the AppleTV appears in iTunes.
Issue #2 is that the remote speakers connected via an Airport Express disappear. This seems to happen at the same time as the AppleTV disappearing, as the drop-down box for selecting the remote speakers vanishes. Normally it lists the computer, the Apple TV, and the stereo but then the box goes away.
Similarly for issue #1, I can get the drop-down back by going to Preferences : Devices and unselect "look for remote speakers", close and reopen Preferences and reselect the same checkbox. Interestingly, doing this does NOT bring the AppleTV back as a device, but the Apple TV is listed along with the remote speakers.
I think the two issues are related, as they both involve the network. My computer is linked via Ethernet to the DSL router with 802.11 then going to the two devices. It seems to me that iTunes is not reestablishing the connection after waking from sleep. But it's not consistent; I can put the computer to sleep and wake it up, and the connection is there. Other times the connection is gone.
The only thing I can't rule out is a problem wirelessly connecting to the devices, but the AppleTV has always reported 5 bars of signal, and the fact that it still streams from iTunes, yet iTunes doesn't see it, makes me think the problem is in iTunes.
Hopefully this will be helpful to someone else with these problems.

After suffering with the Apple TV for four months, and scouring the internet for fixes, tricks, and workarounds before posting, I have to wonder how many thousands of people there are silently slamming their heads on the sofa while they wait for apple TV to unfreeze, catch up to their attempted remote prompts, or simply just restart as if ATV even gave up on itself. (issues are in Bold)
I have to opt with the streaming feature to bring my movies, music, and photo's to a big screen and home theater sound system due to a 2TB (mostly full) Western digital external HD plugged into the 802.11n airport extreme.
A possible reason for *the 2 second stoppages in play of movies and music are that the airport has to link the music/movies to my computer(itunes), which must travel back to the airport to go to the apple TV.*
I'm also using the iphone for remote use, being that the infamous IR issues with the standard remote are so notorious, I wouldn't be surprised if Best Buy started selling the ATV with white paper already taped to the sensor.
*While using the main menu, 1 out of 4 times in a five minute period of navigating the ATV, the product is unresponsive to commands from either type of remote, and I am left to:*
*1. wait until it unfreezes after about 4 min (60% of the time) when all prompts are suddenly recognized by ATV, all at the same time, to which often it goes back into another multi minute freeze before use is temporarily made available again.*
*2. hold the menu button down on the IR remote so ATV restarts after i've waited over 5 min to see if the freeze will work itself out(15% of the time) or*
*3. try to wait out the issue until the ATV restarts itself with no prompted action (10% of the time) to which I am asked to pick a language again and given the option to restart, run diagnostics or restore factory settings.*
*---The last 15% of the time ATV stays frozen and unresponsive to any remote for, in my estimation ever (I literally waited almost two months, pressing buttons many times a day to try an wake the ATV got nothing but a screensaver before i gave in), until you're forced to pull the plug because the holding-menu-button restart option isn't even working **
I've tried restoring factory settings, changing IR remote batteries, unpairing and repairing, unsyncing and resyncing both itunes libraries, remotes and airport extreme connections, jogging the itunes preferences, putting paper in front of the IR sensor, restarting both itunes and unplugging the ATV, and I even went back to exchange the apple tv for another apple tv to see if it was just an issue with the hardware...nothing has eased these ailments.
The airport and all wireless devices in-play are no further than 15 feet from each other, including the airport, which is just on the other side of a very thin wall w/i 10 feet of the ATV.
*If, in the menu freeze, (which, again happens about 25% of the time i attempt to navigate the ATV menu) you give up on the iphone remote, u see the ATV is receiving the signals from the IR remote, but nothing moves most of the time (mentioned above) and the best you might get after waiting and trouble shooting long enough is the screensaver stopping for a split second, when u press a button on the IR remote, before continuing to ken burns until you want to use the ATV to play frisbee with interstate 20 traffic.*
I'm not sure if Apple over-engineered this device to the point where it's tripping over itself to perform the most basic functions, but I bought this device so I could watch my movies and listen to my music wirelessly, and at this point, the DVI wire and headphone jack splitter are a much more reliable (yet burdensome) option than the ATV.
If I had to guess, it seems most problems stem from users who stream from an external hard drive, whether it be plugged into the host computer, or broadcast wirelessly (this is not taking into consideration the IR remote issue). This might be an unpopular suggestion to Apple, and i'm sure you have some reasoning for not making this an option, either for monetary or twisted legal obligations but the internet complaint factory might be a little less whiny if you just simply make an option to have the ATV be a screen emulator, with AirTunes, and cut all the other youtube, direct internet to ATV garbage that 65% of the people using this product didn't buy it for.
I have been nothing but awestricken with Apple products since I was a child, and thought there were no ends to the company's ability to make products that work with each other easily, seamlessly, and without the need of a computer engineer to set it up for you. Unfortunately though, it seems, for the time being, we might have met the limits.

Start-up grey screen lock and waking issues

Hello, I've been having several problems with my iMac G5 that seemed to all start at the same time just in this last week:
1/ Trouble starting computer - during start up the usual tone is heard, then a grey screen appears and the start up process stops. I am forced to restart and try again. After several attempts the computer makes it to the grey apple logo and it finally starts up. The computer works perfectly once it is finally on all of the way - except for the following sleep thing . . .
2/ computer won't start up again after sleeping - EITHER screen remains black and fan noise is heard, OR screen image comes back but then distorts slightly, a dark gray washes over it, and a restart notice appears (also distorted).
I have tried the follwing techniques to fix the problems:
- Disc Utility check: everything fine
- Hardware Test from disk: everything fine
- Re-set PRAM
- Tried starting holding down Option Key - had to shut down after endless wait
- Looked for new firmware - what I found didn't help
- Removed new Software - no change
- Tested with various peripherals disconnected - no dice
I have NOT tried Safe Boot - safe mode would turn off many of the functions I use most.
I'm not sure what else I can do. I am, of course, aware of the "Repair Extension Program for Video and Power Issues" but as I live in Japan, outside Tokyo, it is going to be a long haul to get my computer in to be looked at.
Could this be fixed any other way by me? Or does this sound like a classic "G5 power/video issue" and I should just bite it and take it in?

Hi Corrie, welcome to Discussions. Unfortunately I think you hit the nail right on the head. I would find a way to get this done with extension program because paying to fix it maybe cost inhibitive. (could you ship it to a friend or relative in the USA and have them take it in)???
For the sleep/wake issue you can try resetting the SMU, read the link below and it will show you how. Good luck Bob

Wrong channel distribution...Win7 64 and elite pro

2Wrong channel distribution...Win7 64 and elite proXHi folks!
I've updated my OS from a vista 32 to a 7 64bits and since then I've some problems with my Xfi Elite pro soundcard...
While listening some MP3s, the channel got mixed up and, generally I have a weird and loud noise before that occurs...
I've first thought it was a problem with foobar and its DSP but no... I still got the problem with other applications...
And when I test the channel with the audio console after getting the bug and after closing the audio software every channels seems to be correctly distributed...
I've a Z5500 kit hooked on the soundcard and I've also tried to play mp3 over the SPDIF output of the card and it seems to work fine... The problem seems to happen only when I play songs over the analog signal...
What do you think?

Hi there !
Sorry to bring back this old post from the dead, but I continue to have problems with my x-fi elite pro...As a matter of fact, I always had trouble with it !
Well to list all the problems I've have encountered :
The I/O console which seems to be dead then Suddely wake up in the world of the living.<
Sudden hissing sound coming from all of the Loudspeaker...<
Sudden loss of channels after changing the mode. The problem only settle after several reboots<
Wrong channels distribution with the analog config.<
Freeze my PC @ start up or BOSD ( on a vista x86).<
windows suddenly doesn't recognize it. And like the console, the card suddenly wakes up after several reboots.<
I've bought this card in 2006 I believe, and it has been the black sheep in my rig ever since...but it's also irremplacable because of its I/O console ! ( and to be honnest, for its sound quality when I've no problem with the card ).
As far as I can remember, I didn't had any problem as long I was on a good'ol xp. But I've moved on a 7 now...
Well, just to be sure, there's no way to use the console on the lastest fatalty? If not, do you know of a more recent card with both Spdif coax in/out and RCAs on it's
I thought of buying a Home cinema, but I would keep a good sound quality without laying to much bucks for it. And, moreover everything is in a small room...and my Z5500 is the perfect match for the setup of this room.

Mac Pro with Dell UP2414Q Sleep Wake Issue

Hi,
I have *two* Dell UP2414Q displays connected to a new Mac Pro, both using Display Port 1.2 (MST) setting in order to get 4K @ 60Hz.
Works fine. Except Google Chrome which is really lame at redrawing all these pixels when you scroll up/down.
The issue is: when the displays go to sleep for a longer period of time (actually it's probably when the Mac Pro itself has gone to sleep) and I wake the system up, the Dells sometimes won't wake up!
And if I start fiddling with the display buttons I will get a half image (left half of the screen). Same problem on each display except sometime it's the first one that doesn't wake up, sometimes it's the second one and sometimes it's both. Unfortunately the situation where they both wake up is extremely rare
Has anyone else had similar troubles?
Note: I have had similar sleep wake issues with just one UP2414Q connected.
I'm running OS X 10.9.4 (of course).
I'm also having a 3rd smaller display connected though a DVI adapter. That one wakes up 100% of the time. I previously had 3 of these and they did always wake up all 3 without issues.
-Francois.

I have this issue with the UP2414Q monitor and my new Mac Pro . . . . . and then some.
I started by losing the right half of the screen on wake up. After about two months of use, my monitor has developed a fault where both sides of the monitor are displayed but at seemingly very different calibrations. The left half is contrasty and the right half seems to be correctly matched to my working profile. This is using the display port connections. HDMI doesn't have this problem but it also won't run at 60Hz, which was an important factor in my choice of this monitor.
At this point I contacted both Apple and Dell. Although I have had quite a few different Apple support staff over a period of a week or so, they did keep good notes, were very patent and seemed to take a genuine interest into trouble shooting it. I cannot say the same for Dell. At first they did ask questions and did the right thing by sending a replacement. It worked fine on display port, then on HDMI but when I connected it back to display port the split screen problem occurred on the brand new replacement one too. After a day of fiddling with connections it went back to displaying correctly with all connections and has not reverted but it does now have the dead right halve on wakeup more frequently than before. I reconnected the original monitor but that has the split screen problem and I can't find a way of getting it to go away. It is unusable.
This incident with the replacement monitor was five days ago. In that time I have tried to contact Dell support by the original e-mail of the technician that initially helped and by phone, through the support number. The email gets the repeated response "Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for your email. I have left for the day, hence my reply will be delay". It happens in the mooring or the afternoon. A phone call to Dell's support number always starts with a promise to be transferred to the technician dealing with my case and, without fail ends by me being left on hold indefinitely with a terrible one minute audio loop followed by a repeated promise of the next available agent. I once waited over 30 minutes, just to test it. I live in Australia but this was clearly an international call centre. Dell obviously have no intention of dealing with my case. They will have to talk soon though because I still have an extra one of their monitors.
Unless there is a firmware update for this monitor, I would strongly advise against buying one for a Mac, or any Dell product for that matter.

IMac G5 crashes on restart and wake from sleep.....

I have an iMac G5 (2GHZ, PowerPC G5 (3.1) running tiger 10.4.6. Sometimes when the computer goes to sleep and I try and wake it up by pressing any key nothing happens and after a couple of minutes the fans come on full blast - I am forced to shut it down with the power button and then restart.
A similiar problem happens sometimes when I restart the mac, it just hangs at the black screen and no apple 'tone' is heard as with normal startup, the fans then come on full blast - I have to then restart as with the above example.
These problems only happen sometimes but are frequent enough to cause concern. I believe the problems might be linked to USB devices connected to the computer as on small scale testing it seems the problems disappear when I unplug all USB devices except the keyboard/mouse.
My current USB connections are keyboard/mouse, Nikon
Coolscan 5000ed scanner, epson photo r200 printer and canon powershot usb cable. No firewire devices are installed but I am connecting to the net via an ethernet cable.
Any advice/input on these issues would be greatly
appreciated.
many thanks,
Alex

pretty standard Logitech 3-button optical mouse. i have been using it for a long time though so i doubt that it is the cause.
Ahhh!
Logitech released a new version of their control centre a month or two back to cater for some changes in recent versions of Tiger.
Definitely worth checking for the update. THis may conceivably be the cause of your problems. http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/downloads/categories/US/EN,CRID=1792
[EDIT - I should add that quite a few people have been having problems with Logitech Mac drivers in recent times. see http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/14421 for some of the issues. Some people use USB Overdrive instead, for this reason)

Win7 - intermittent mouse stuttering issue

Hello, as per engineer's advice I am opening a separate thread on Win7 mouse stuttering problem here. Same issue as with others: both built-in and wired mouse cursor suddenly stops moving for a few seconds, then it restores its movement. I see no specific
or firm correlation between network activity (wired or wireless, different networks). No correlation also between processor load and the issue, alas. It can happen on a desktop with a single application, let's say IE.
The issue first occured almost immediately after installing fresh Win7 on a new computer. The MS engineer advised to uninstall and reinstall Flash; no change after that.
Computer is Lenovo X201, Intel i5 CPU M 520 @ 2.40 Ghz, 4 GB of RAM, Win7 64 bit Enterprise.
Luckilly, the computer is used for business purposes only so no casualties in fierce gaming, but the glitch is nevertheless annoying. Hope for some useful advice. Thanks.

EDIT:
ACTUAL FIX, AND YOU'RE NOT GONNA LIKE IT!
I've found that I only ever experienced mouse lag, when my RAM (memory) usage peaked, resulting in Windows being forced to do disk paging to cope with my lack of RAM.
You can see if this is your problem, by hitting CTRL-SHIFT-ESC to open the Task Manager, and go to the Performance tab (do this just after a fresh reboot!!! See why below.). Leave it open, and try doing a lot of things at once (open a browser with many start-up
tabs while opening some RAM-heavy program, like a programming IDE or a video editing suite). If it peaks, and your mouse subsequently lags, you probably need more RAM for your purposes.
This also explains why people can be posting so many different false "fixes". Whenever the lag occurs, because some operation needs more RAM, the data is cached
in the page file. So when people have experienced lag while using their computer, and then do something to try and fix their problem, and try the same things that made the computer lag before, all those things are already cached, and therefore won't lag anymore...until
you restart your computer, or the pagefile has been filled with new data.
The fix for me, ended up being installing more RAM. If you do not have that option, try to limit the number of programs simultaneously running on your computer. One way
to do this, is by unchecking unneeded start up programs, using these steps:
1. Start ==> Run
2. Type in: msconfig
3. Hit enter the Startup tab
4. Untick all programs THAT YOU KNOW, which you do not need to have available at start up.
Another way, is to remember to close programs when you're done with them.
