Hi,
I'm new here. I have a dell lattitude a few years old running windows 2000 ver 5.00.2195
I've run virus scans, ccsreader, spybot, adware and hijackthis.
No viruses or threats show up. I've defragged my hard drive and run chkdsk.

Any suggestions?

Here is my hijack log.

LD, Thanks for the quick response. I ran the scan an no threats were found, I'm including the report. Prior to your repsonse I ran AVG ant-spyware 7.5 I'm including that report as well. The computer seems to run oaky once the programs are launched. The launch of the programs takes a while, also reboots take a long time. Also the mouse over display doesn't change on the AVG program tabs. When I click or double click its like nothing happens, then after a long pause the new window shows. This laptop run WIN 2K PRO all my other laptops and desktops run WIN XP os's. I'm not sure if this is a hardware or software issue. All programs run stand alone on this laptop except my network connection is a wireless. I ran chkdsk and had no errors, I ran defrag and all seemed okay. I appreciate all your help. Here are the scan logs.

I suggest you do this:

Please do not delete anything unless instructed to.


1.Click Start > Settings > Control Panel.
2.Next, open Add/Remove Programs and remove if listed:
AVG Anti-Spyware 7.5 <–Unless you want to keep it.



Run hijackthis. Hit None of the above, Click Do a System Scan Only. Put a Check in the box on the left side on these:

Close ALL windows and browsers except HijackThis and click "Fix checked"



Please download ATF Cleaner by Atribune.
Download - ATF Cleaner»
Double-click ATF-Cleaner.exe to run the program.
Under Main choose: Select All
Click the Empty Selected button.

(If you use FireFox or the Opera browser
To keep saved passwords, click No at the prompt.)

It's normal after running ATF cleaner that the PC will be slower to boot the first time or two.


Reboot and "copy/paste" a new HijackThis log file into this thread.

Also please describe how your computer behaves at the moment.

Laptop shutdown and rester tokk approx 10 minutes, previously it took 14 minutes.
IE takes about 15-20 seconds to launch previously it took about 60 seconds.
So its getting faster. On my other machines IE launches almost instantly.

lets see if this will help speed it up.

Backup Your Registry with ERUNT
  • Please use the following link and scroll down to ERUNT and download it.
    http://aumha.org/freeware/freeware.php
  • For version with the Installer:
    Use the setup program to install ERUNT on your computer
  • For the zipped version:
    Unzip all the files into a folder of your choice.
Click Erunt.exe to backup your registry to the folder of your choice.

Note: to restore your registry, go to the folder and start ERDNT.exe



I recommend you download RegSeeker. Extract it to it's own folder, open and double click RegSeeker.exe to start the program. Maximize the window and click clean registry. Check all sections and click OK. When the scan is complete, verify the backup box in lower left corner is checked and click the select all button, then select all again. Then right click within the search results and select delete. Run it again and again, deleting everything it finds until it finds nothing. Reboot and make sure your programs are working properly, control panel and add/remove programs windows open, etc (basically just do a quick check of everything). In the event anything was 'broken', you can open RegSeeker, click backups and double click any/all files to put the information back. A reboot may be required for the effects to be seen. Reboot When done.

NOTE: To be extra safe you can choose to only remove the items in RED.

LD,
I followed all your instructions and all my programs seem to be working okay. The shutdown and restart stills takes approx 12 minutes. What I did notice is when I first launch my computer or my documents it takes a while if I close it after it opened and reopen it launches instantly. IE launches at varying speeds but I'm wondering if that can be because of the wireless connection?

Once open all the programs seem to operate at a normal speed.

So the slow areas are the shutdown and restart and the initial program launch of IE and other MS programs.

Thanks
Tony

You need to update SunJava.
Updating Java:
Download the latest version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) 5.0 Update 10.
  • Scroll down to where it says "The J2SE Runtime Environment (JRE) allows end-users to run Java applications".
  • Click the "Download" button to the right.
  • Check the box that says: "Accept License Agreement".
  • Click on the link to download Windows Offline Installation with or without Multi-language and save to your desktop.
  • Close any programs you may have running - especially your web browser.
  • Go to Start > Control Panel double-click on Add/Remove programs and remove all older versions of Java.
  • Check any item with Java Runtime Environment (JRE or J2SE) in the name. It should have the [external image: Posted Image] icon next to it.
  • Click the Remove or Change/Remove button.
  • Repeat as many times as necessary to remove each Java versions.
  • Reboot your computer once all Java components are removed.
  • Then from your desktop double-click on jre-1_5_0_09-windowsi586-p.exe to install the newest version.
Other then that you're log looks good.
It's possible that the issues you're having is lack of RAM memory and/or free disk space.
Also the type of programs that need to be loaded and unloaded.

LD,
Completed the latest updates. Latest Java ver is 6.0 so I loaded that version. After removing previous Java the shutdown/restart took 6 minutes. Same sequence after loading Java 6.0 took 8 minutes a significant improvement. Agree that low mem or possibly the speed of the hard drive may account for the remaining speed issues. Its an older machine and is used for special purposes usually, currently used as a web surfer in between. Could indexing, paging or hibernating setup be a factor here? Do you think updating to IE 7 would help or hurt? Do you think reinstalling the OS would help? If so can you instruct on how to do this?
Thanks for all your help
Tony

I wouldn't try IE7. it appears that IE7 is causing slowdowns.

Click Start> Run> type sfc /quiet Note the space.
(Note that there is a space between sfc and /quiet)

sfc /quiet - In Windows 2000 this sets Windows File Protection to replace any incorrect system files detected with the appropriate version from the dll cache without any user notification. This option has no effect in Windows XP.

Let me know if that helped.
Post #13
LD,
I ran sfc /quiet. Does this command stay active after a reboot? Its difficult to measure actual repsonse, but here are my observations.
It appears that IE is faster. The initial load still takes about 20-30 seconds. Once loaded the response seems quicker. Shutdown/startup took 5 minutes this morning, so I'm thinking at this point everything is about as fast as its going to get given the hardware restrictions. I'll try to get a hardware expert to analyze the configuration and see if some upgrades are in order.

If you have any other things I should try please let me know.

If not, I truely appreciate the time and effort you've invested in helping me get my problems sorted out.

I hope that the New Year brings you and your family the wishes that you may have.
Thanks
Tony
