|  New Q6600 acts like an old Pentium 2 Something is defenitely wrong just got that computer built not even one week ago and it's slower then molasses It takes like 5 minutes to bring up the task manager and the funny thing is I can see the the CPU performance at a 1 or %2 when I drag any wondow I get the whole screen getting covered with the same window !!! That's when I don't get a Not Responding error usually have to wait a few minutes to manage to do anything the only way to get around is by using the alt tab keys!! you can see my specs in my signature!!!!

| Re: New Q6600 acts like an old Pentium 2 Maybe this idea is a bit dated, but if you run the computer is safe mode how does it do? Since your running generic drivers it is not going to scream, but it if performs a great deal better then you know that it is software. You can also use it to tweak some without pulling your hair out waiting for it to move. I also think I remember someone brining up how a Video Card that is not seated well can cause bad issues like you are talking about. All else fails, tear it down to the bare bones and start adding. I had a PC that I fixed that lagged real bad where problems with a scanner driver ended up being the problem. I just kept adding pieces back until the problem showed up. Good Luck!
