Hi
I've got win2K Pro and it was running fine. I had a Kensington mouse
connected via the green round plug, which then broke so I was using it
via the USB plug. I then needed to go online and so connected the
SpeedTouch USB modem to the USB plug, removing the mouse. I got
another mouse with a good green, round plug & connected that.
Around about then, Windows started having problems. Everything has
slowed incredibly... It takes ages - minutes/hours - to do anything:
open Windows Explorer, connect to the internet, download mail, open an
excel spreadsheet. I have rebooted several times and straight after
login, it practically freezes.
CPU usage is at 100% in Task Manager, Memory is pretty low. svchost is
running at 68% and System at 31% of CPU...
One funny thing - I try open a recent document and it says it cannot
find the file. The file exists! I checked the directory... In fact,
when I click on the file in the directory, it still says it cannot
find the file! (Excel spreadsheet in this case...) Not sure if it does
that for ALL files/docs though.
Can anyone please help?? The damned thing is useless like this...
Thanks
Sean
