I restarted my computer about an hour ago, and it is still on the “windows is loading “ screen. I am very frustrated because I got it on Christmas, and it is slow asf. And another question, the outcome might be good or bad, but, should I just wipe it’s hard drive and start over? Please let me know.
@F104Deathtrap there was still a bunch of junk on it anyways
@Lahoski107 Well, when it slows down there are tools within windows that will show what resources are running thin. Hitting CTRL ALT DELETE should bring up the task manager, and from there you can look for a tab called PERFORMANCE. The performance tab should be full of graphs that show how much memory, storage, processor power etc. is being used, if one of them is REALLY high up, then either something is using too much, or you need to somehow get more.
@F104Deathtrap there was a lot of S* that I downloaded. I for Minecraft for my brother using a website called IGGgames. and it has been slow ever since I got it
@Lahoski107 OK, I don't know anything about your computer, but that took a LOT longer than it should have. That wouldn't bother me so much, but you mentioned that it was new. New computers shouldn't be quite that slow. Was there a lot of downloading patches or something? I could see how updates might slow things down.
@F104Deathtrap Done!! Good as new!!!
Gradually getting faster
@F104Deathtrap 37%now
@Lahoski107 That's pretty slow
@F104Deathtrap 18%
How far is it now?
@F104Deathtrap I feel much better, it is resetting, it’s at 2% I hope this helps
@F104Deathtrap not finish?
@Lahoski107 Assuming your hardware is working properly, less than 2 hours. Possibly much faster. But if you've got hardware issues, it might take much longer, or not finish.
@F104Deathtrap how long will the process be?
Nuke that joint, full reinstall. Also, it sounds like your RAM might be bad.
@chancey21 it saves with steam, and it finally restarted
Yes but upload you’re SP progress in unlisted
