Run Atfcleaner, ccleaner, temp file cleaner with all options checkmarked. I have seen these same symptoms in computers in our district. Most the time after I run those three programs and maybe disk cleanup and defrag all is good. You might also want to look at where all the I/O is going within taskmanager to add the column go under view - Select columns - add check box to IO reads and writes.

I have tried Firefox and IE with the same result. I tried the IE with no addons, but then I can't run the flash site.. very troubling. In addition, I have tried disabling all non M$ startup programs as safe mode has, to no avail. Its a tough one. Go go heavy flash sites-- raising test scores. -Aaron On Wed, 6 Oct 2010 14:02:19 -0500 "Shelly Cramer" <sc...@cusd3.com> wrote: Have you tried updating the video driver, network drivers?

Two years ago we deployed 600 netbooks (asus 1000HE model) with windows xp home and all was fine. This past summer, we manually went to each computer and did a little house cleaning: upgrading flash, shockwave, etc. etc. It was calculated to be faster than straight imaging every machine. Fast forward to today and many heavy flash websites i.e. Math Facts in a Flash (part of Accelerated Reader suite) simply bog down. There is a huge delay between submitting answers and getting the next question vs. last year. I have done the standard troubleshooting techniques: uninstall flash / reinstall, shockwave, uninstall / reinstall all drivers. It is not a wireless issue or wired (netbooks had same problem while wired in, and not a bandwidth issue). I've looked at disabling all non M$ start up programs to no avail. Here is the interesting thing.. all of these flash sites work flawlessly on the same given netbooks, when I boot into xp safe mode. What is safe mode not doing to make it work? When I image a given netbook from two years ago, and basically repeat everything I did over the summer they appear to work. Any help would be appreciated-- sorry for long message. -Aaron ----------------------------------------- Disclaimer If you have received this email in error, please delete it and do not divulge this information in any way.
