Seems like it. I can't prove it though. I've seen the same series of
events several times now over the course of the three months I've had
Vista installed.
Computer on all day, (this time about 13 hours), I'm doing my usual
things, everything seems fine. Then out of the blue the system first
slows down a little, then more then it starts to crawl over the space
of a couple minutes. You see all the teletale signs of something
eating up system resources. The keyboard first becomes slow to respond
then becomes almost totally non responsive. Anything on screen takes
forever to get redrawn. You can see image files that use to open
instantly now slowly scroll open taking seconds to complete, ditto for
text documents. Trying to open a new application that used to open in
a few seconds now takes minutes to open.
No, indexer isn't running. Neither is anti-virus or defrag.
I go to Task Manager and one by one close down my running
applications. I get to the point nothing but Windows itself is left
running. System hasn't improved performance at all. Still as sluggish
as a snail suffering from heat stroke. All kinds of crap, all Windows
crap seen in Resources monitor accessing my hard drive and CPU very
busy. Finally, in disgust I'm forced to shut down. Reboot, system
normal again.
Damn it Microsoft, can't you ever fix Windows so it actually works
like it is suppose to?
