Low performance - High spec
Thanks for the reply JayD. How about the low CPU utilization? Compressing and Uncompressing files is a CPU intensive task. why is my CPU so low when I am uncompressing about 10 large RARs at the same time it was still less than 15%. Also, yes I am aware of Vistas Superfetch and Readyboost and such (I also have a 4GB 33mb/s Readyboost device). Which is also why I am disappointed I gave it so much memory so it could use all it needs but unless I run 4 or 5 Virtual Machines it hardly uses any of it  -- whitik

I was just using them as an example because the RARs are huge and the uncompression should eat up CPU cycles easy so I can't figure out why the CPU is barely working at all. -- whitik
