Bakuchris Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) Hello again, I recently installed Microsoft Windows 8.1 but I'm noticing something very odd, I'm starting to get bad application performance everything I run seems to run slow like my hardware is not powerful enough though when I ran it before I did not encounter this problem. I checked the task manager though it clams nothing is really taking up alot of memory, though when I run Adobe Premiere, Firefox (Unoffical x64 Build), and AmaRecTV (playing my Nintendo Wii) usually I am able to run all three without any problems at all, rebooting does not solve the problem it's still slow. Though If I do nothing and leave the application running, everything seems fast I should mention. Edited July 9, 2014 by Bakuchris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bakuchris Posted July 15, 2014 Author Share Posted July 15, 2014 It's a Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H and the software was Gigabyte Easysaver (Version B9.1214.1), the Easysaver software is not very new they haven't updated it years I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
