FRESH INSTAL OF WINDOWS VISTA BUSINESS BUT SO SLOW

[Guest]

hi, i jus bought a new computer with nothin on. 2gb ram, 320gb hdd drive,
512mb graphics card, AMD 3800+ x2 64bit processor......enough to run vista
rite?

however, wen i first installed it. it took 40 mins, then i thouht it was
crashing cos wen i restarted it the screen was blank. So then i reinstalled
vista altogether nd the same ting happened so i thought id jus leave it nd
see wot happened, bout 30mins later it started running nd eventually it got
me into windows. But its stil so slow havent done n e ting it doesnt crash,
can stil move the mouse but after a min it stops for about 20 nd then a min
later another 20 nd so on. Y is this happening?

My friend sed its cos vista indexes all the files for its search, but surely
my pc shouldnt b goin this slow! some1 please help and tel me what is gooin
on. i might jus have to instal XP on it

Do we know how to communicate in regular English? That would be so much
better to read if you want help.

vista right?

however, when i first installed it. it took 40 mins to instal, then i
thought it was
crashing because when i restarted it the screen was blank. So then i
reinstalled
windows vista altogether and the same thing happened so i thought id just
leave it on nd see what happened, about 30mins later it started running and
eventually it got me into windows desktop screeb. But its still so slow
havent done any thing it doesnt crash, i can stil move the mouse but after a
minute it stops for about 20 mins and then i can use it for another but then
it hppens again for another 20 mins and so on. why is this happening?

My friend said its because vista indexes all the files for its search, but

going

Hello Bill

You should of posted a warning (not to drink coffee) while reading this
post. thanks for the good laugh you made my day!!!!!

yes vista spends the first few hours/days indexing the computer to make searches faster.
and yes also it is not supposed to make the computer dog slow.
after the install was done did you cleanup the computer and defrag it.
its possible you need to update some drivers for the computer, video is one that is probably out of date.

hi, thanks

i got fed up of vista so i installed XP....everything was working well on xp
and i thought i might as well instal vista beacause it should work. i just
installed vista business but everytime it loads up or begins to i get the
blue screen and a system restart. i am trying to fix it now...any
sugguestions?

i think before there was a problem because i installed vista on top of vista
and thats why it was so slow. But i formated my hd drive then installed XP,
but i dont know what its doin now. But thanks. I am running startup repair at
the moment to see if it works
