Not the first time I’ve run into this problem, but the first time I felt like looking into it. Last time i just used different burning software, problem solved. But I still enjoy the simplicity of the windows burner.
Problem is, when I’m “attempting” to burn a CD and do anything else on the machine it lags hardcore. I get “Not Responding” from just opening Firefox.
I have a movie encoding, a disk burning and I’m trying to surf the net, is that too much to ask? I enabled the CPU widget so you could see how little resources I’m actually using, but still the machine acts like it is going to die.
Anyone else run into this?
PS - How the hell do you use the attachment uploader? The “basic” is simple enough, but wtf do you do with the default one?
I can’t find anything for those settings. For the encoder I have it maxed to use all cores at it’s highest possible amount (“time sensitive”), but it doesn’t even scratch the surface.
It definitely doesn’t seem to have any impact on CPU or RAM when it is running, it simply slows everything down around it.
Friggen ConvertXtoDVD failed… SOB.
Moved AVIs to Desktop to read from SSD and doubled throughput. Who woulda thunk it. Wish it would chew up more CPU…
I don’t know how relevant it is but I have been having a TON of problems with firefox slowing down my machine. It should not be a issue on my gaming rig but there is something not right with firefox. maybe it is corrupt on my machine or something.
It isn’t Firefox, unfortunately, the entire PC lags I used Firefox to show how a simple and otherwise instantly opening application can be impeded by that process.
ALT CTRL DEL and then open task manager, then click on performance, then resource monitor. Once thats open try the same process and see whats hogging resources. Theres obv something making it lag you just have to see what it is. Do you have an antivirus? Its possible that its trying to run a scan in the backround and slowing everything down.
