These are pretty high.  I assume the top one is WIndows Update.  The other one is the fancy desktop thing.  The good news is that Interrrupts remain under 1.5

 

You try changing to Classic Theme and see if dwm.exe drops to a much lower level.

If you go into Control Panel, Windows Updates does it show it found any or is it still looking?

Hi Kinner,

 

Changed to classic theme. below is the process explorer log - dwm has indeed reduced.

Also, I clicked on check for windows update & it's still looking more than 15 mins  now. last check for updates was 4/12 & last updates installed was 7/6.

Did you ever run the windows readiness tool I talked about back on http://www.geekstogo...-1#entry2549768 ?

 

It may help with Windows Updates.  Windows Updates takes forever these days.  24 hours is common.  Do you have KB 3145739 ? It's touted as a fix for the slowness.

 

I don't have a Vista box right now.  Is the Classic Theme bearable?  

[abhi6512]

Hey Kinner,

 

Thanks for your swift response.

You know after such a long long long long .... time .. I have a good news ... My machine is indeed behaving normal now. 

I can work, I can type without any long pauses, missing cursors, I can open browser, win explorer without any wait or lag.

I can browse websites without any pauses n long waits. No more online vdo runnings with pauses ....

 

You are amazing.. this dwm thing indeed worked for us. My machine seems to be back to normal.

I have to complete one very imp work of office which I was facing tough time doing on cell fone small screen.

 

thanks a ton Kinner, my machine is indeed faster now.

 

I will implement the steps mentioned in your response above n get back to you.
