Answer Question
When I connect to the Internet, my entire computer slows down
Hello everyone,
I installed a Wireless adapter in my computer yesterday, connected to the house's Wireless Router, and everything worked fine. This morning, I connected to the internet and all of my computer slowed down (Paint took about two minutes to load). I looked in the task manager, and noticed that about all of the processing power was used (by different programs). I tried to close several tasks, but it did not help. I restarted my computer, and everything was fine again; I figured that my computer was lagging because of the internet connection. I tried to connect/disconnect, and my computer was slow only while I was connected.
I'd like to know if someone as already encountered this issue, and how it was solved... and here are some of my specs (I don't really know what to include here... if something more is needed, tell me)
Windows XP professional, sp2
Processor: AMD Athlon, 1.01 GHz and 640 Mb of RAM
Wireless card: D-Link WDA-1320 Desktop Adapter
And if it's important, I must use an antenna (2.4 Ghz), because my computer is really far from the router. And the signal is low (~36%).
Thank you
