I do face this problem recently i have formatted my PC.I facing the very slow loading on my netowrk icon and also the winfox program(using to monitor and o/c display card).Before i formatted this kind of scenario is not happened before.This happened on my P4 2.6 with the Geforce 5900.Anyone can tell me what happened?I have tried out formatting the computer 3 times just bacasue of this problem.I suspect the windows XP pro that i installed is not really stable.


Before the things finish loading,if i press of my computer's property,or maybe clicking something on quick launch tool bar,my pc will be handed for a while.This will be only solved when the icon and the program finished loaded.

Anyone can help me on this problem?I suggest to reinstalled again the windows using different version of XP pro.

No one can help here?

I have try those work that you recommended to me before.No program is using a lot of memory.I have also disable the programs i don't want from loading in begining of start up windows.Thank you.

How i killed the prefetch?I don't know what is that.Mind to eleborate more?

I have already done this things already.Reformatted the hdd sure doesn't have the unwanted registry one.Fresh copy of OS.
No,i am not connecting to the network drives.

Will get a try on this when i am back to hometown.Thanks for your advice and suggestion.

Opps,about 2 weeks didn't visit this thread already so many replies.Anyway thanks for your guys comment and helps.So far my pc is formatted again and now the loading on the network icon and winfox icon is loading faster than before although it needs 20sec to load them out.

20 seconds is rather slow for me as normally my icons will finished loading in between 7 seconds.But now is delayed for no reason although a fresh copy of windows is installed.

Shouldn't be not enough RAM on the system.Just doing the loading job won't require much RAM on that.My 1.7Ghz spec is loading faster than my 2.6Ghz spec.Don't know why...

I mean during the time jsut log in to Windows,the start up application like Antivirus,sound devide,network icon will le loading first before you can use the windows.What i ask is the problem that network icon is loading slowly eventohugh the pc has finish loading the antivirus and sound device program.I set up both pc with same program at start up.So not logical that the faster pc load slower than the slower pc.Both also with same amount of RAM.

RDRAM,that is RDRAM.PC800. Each module is running in 400Mhz.dual channel become 800Mhz.Hehe,you don't know about RDRAM?Er...o/c problem,can be a possibility also.but using Apacer brand to overclocking can cause the problem?I don't think so,as long as my rig running stable can already.

Hehe,ya lo is dual channel.I was thinking you know about that.Hehe,the faster com sure give better quality in gaming.No offence.Well i am happy with it. Just the thing is i want to eliminate the time for loading.

Hehe,what to wait?Change the 256MB RAM to another 512MB one.Then you will be able to run the dual channel.Somemore 1GB RAM.More faster in gaming.

Maybe your RAM might not suit or comfort in running applications after you overclock 30%.You might try on the 25% overclock then maybe you can play games and also run applications without problem.Various of factors can caused that.

Processor and RAM o/c are related.I think you don't know much about the concept of o/c.Once you o/c your proc then your RAM's frequency will start incresing.Increase how much then will depends on the ratio setting you are using.Perhaps synchronous or not synchronous.A lot a lot to learn in overclocking.Then RAM timing also playing important role on top on of that.
