This is what we are working on now. To try and take some of the extra stuff from running thus taking the stress off the cpu and ram.
The real only sure way to resolve this is to do a cpu upgrade but hopefully taking the autoruns down will help.
How is the system running now that you have run TFC and Defrag?

Is the system running ok?
Please do the following so I can see how the hard drive is setup now.
Go to Start then to Run
Type in compmgmt.msc and click Enter
On left side click on Disk Management
On right side you will see you hard drive.
Now I need you to take a screenshot and attach it to your next reply. Do the following to take a screenshot while the above is open and showing on your desktop.

To do a screenshot please have click on your Print Screen on your keyboard. It is normally the key above your number pad between the F12 key and the Scroll Lock key
Now go to Start and then to All Programs
Scroll to Accessories and then click on Paint
In the Empty White Area click and hold the CTRL key and then click the V
Go to the File option at the top and click on Save as
Save as file type JPEG and save it to your Desktop


Attach it to your next reply

You have plenty of room on your C drive.
How is the system running?
I can't find any problems at this point unless there is something specific you are seeing or experiencing.

Yep that was it. Now hold on cause we are going to get complicated maybe.
Open Autoruns, click on "Logon" tab, and UN-check:
"IgfxTray"
"SunJavaUpdateSched"
"FancyStart daemon.lnk"
"msnmsgr"
When done restart computer and then:

Download TFC by OldTimer to your desktop

  • Please double-click TFC.exe to run it. (Note: If you are running on Vista, right-click on the file and choose Run As Administrator).
  • It will close all programs when run, so make sure you have saved all your work before you begin.
  • Click the Start button to begin the process. Depending on how often you clean temp files, execution time should be anywhere from a few seconds to a minute or two. Let it run uninterrupted to completion.
  • Once it's finished it should reboot your machine. If it does not, please manually reboot the machine yourself to ensure a complete clean.


Download Auslogics Defrag from the link in my signature below. Auslogics Defrag in my opinion is better because:
It does a more comprehensive job at Defragging
It will actually show you what it is doing
At the end of working it will show you how much speed you picked up
You can view a online log of the files that Auslogics defragged

OK but please understand that Autoruns is different on every system. Each time we advise on Autoruns that reply is tailored for the system we are working on. Turning off something on one system may severely disable something on another.
