Hi I'm new and before I start, my connectyion is DSL I'm running nothing else, no other browser, MSN, download managers, NOTHING! And the browser with gamerenders alone CPU used is like 92%. And I know why OVERBOARD ON ANIMATION. i see like 20 avatars with animation and signatures with over 10 sigs, buttons, etc... like two banners and an animatedis fine, but it's overboard. im not trying to be mean, maybe have a limit? cuz i like this site and would like to continue to stay..
The current limit is 10 images, and 9 lines in your sig section. You can turn off viewing sigs in "My Controls"; which should cut down on your problem. BFTP
and i would have to say your computer needs to be upgraded because i run windows media player,photoshop,msn messenger,aim,and a browser with like 4 tabs including game renders and my usage is at 4% maybe u need more ram or sumthin
Okay thank you... I soon found out that everyone with my XP was logged on, and AVG was running with every single one... so yeah theres the prob. I run on 128mb ram.. wich isn't too bad. it works fine now, runnin' smoove w/ msn open.
128mb ram is bad for windows xp. the minimum i would reccomend is 256. oh btw i run photoshop, dreamweaver, firefox, thunderbird, aim, msn, yim, opera, windows media, wordpad, cuteftp, and the calculator all at once and my usage gets to 10%.
I'm running photoshop 7, 12 windows of mozilla, aim, itunes, installing halo 1, macromedia dreamweaver, ftp pro, 5 windows of folders, and winamp and im using %2.
