Task x of y slow
"Gerry" wrote in message ... Bill I asked very specific questions to get a clear understanding of the background to your problem. Unfortunately you have not answered the question about the Commit Charge. Also I was not suggesting you run Disk Defragmenter but to post a copy of the report after Analyse but before running it. You have not paid attention to how I said you were to get it. -- Hope this helps. Gerry ~~~~ FCA Stourport, England Enquire, plan and execute ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bill wrote: Gerry, Thanks for getting back but hardware situation is as it was before OE got itself screwed up (maybe with some inadvertent help from me!) a couple of days ago- see other posts. Will check defrag but did it only a while ago, RAM is 1GB, (but same as before the problem). Have 20GB free (again which is more than b4 the problem) on a 60GB HDD. Have searched for 'Vol*.txt' without success - OS is W2K if it makes a difference! Regards. Bill. "Gerry" wrote in message ... Bill Open Disk Defragmenter and click on Analyse. Select View Report and click on Save As and Save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents Folder and post a copy. How much RAM memory? How large is your drive and how much free space? Try Ctrl+Alt+Delete to select Task Manager and click the Performance Tab. Under Commit Charge what is the Total, the Limit and the Peak? -- Hope this helps. Gerry ~~~~ FCA Stourport, England Enquire, plan and execute ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bill wrote: Hi All, Sorted out OE in line the advice and links given in this forum. At present only downloading NG headers while I get my head round what I used to subscribe to. I have gone off line and compacted all folders. As I said all is working except the bit that says 'task x of y completed' is very very slow, to the extent that task manager says that OE has stopped responding, even though it hasn't. All eventually completes but takes ages. Fact is that OE is now 'lighter' than it ever was so I'm at a bit of a loss. Can anyone help please? Ta. Bill.

Task x of y slow
"Bill" wrote in message ... Fait enough, I was going out and had read your post too quickly. Sorted it now anyway. Google was the answer, well in part at least. Simply unchecked the box in the Account Properties that said use LAN to connect. Even though I do connect through the LAN this seems to have resolved the problem. Don't know why it wasn't a problem before though. Regards. Bill. "Gerry" wrote in message ... Bill I asked very specific questions to get a clear understanding of the background to your problem.

"PA Bear" wrote in message ... Always reply to your original thread, please. General OE Caveats: - Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local folders created for this purpose. - Empty Deleted Items folder daily. - Disable Background Compacting [not available in SP2] and frequently perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm - Do not cancel Automatic Compacting, should it occur, and do not attempt to close OE via Task Manager or shutdown your machine if Automatic Compacting is taking place. - Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause such corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection. -- ~Robear Dyer (PA Bear) MS MVP-Windows (IE, OE, Security, Shell/User) AumHa VSOP & Admin http://aumha.net DTS-L http://dts-l.org/ Bill wrote: Hi All, Sorted out OE in line the advice and links given in this forum.

"Bill" wrote in message ... What do you mean always reply to my original thread? This is a different problem to what I have posted about earlier. As for your caveats, I have read them and implemented and they were very helpful, thank you. However you have not read my posts properly or you would not have responded in the way that you have.
