Tweaking.com - Windows Repair v3.9.35 fails at Repair stage

(1/3) > >>

Hi

Attached is the Repair Log file from my first attempts at running Windows Repair v3.9.35.  As you can see, the process timed out after memory clean and before the actual repair phase started.

Are you able to suggest any solutions/actions I should take to overcome this impasse?

Many thanks

Samson:
Going by your memory usage it looks like you are not running the repairs in "safe mode", which is the recommended method.

Follow all the steps, registry backup etc and then "Safe Mode".

NB See this post, re updates for Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Service Pack 2

Many thanks for taking the trouble to respond to my post so quickly.

I can confirm that I was indeed in SAFE mode when applying v3.9.35.  By way of a guide, I use a black screen backdrop with SAFE, and a pale blue screen backdrop otherwise.  I was also working in Administrator mode.

I much appreciate your pointer to updates for legacy systems, and will check them out and apply as required.

Regards

What was the reason for running the repair program ?

For several months I've been experiencing frustratingly long response times on the net.  I use Firefox and Bing.  Typically after a reboot, I'll get very good response times (a second or so) with the first 6 - 12 urls.  Then response times can be measured in minutes.  Quite frequently the request just times-out.  I tried to swap between Userids, but this made no difference.  I tried IE and Google.  The same.  I have no choice but to reboot.  Just occasionally and very confusingly, I can use my system with good response time for up to 30 minutes before the problem re-appears.

I've checked line speeds (BT with BTInternet).  Downloads between 5-6Mbps, uploads between 0.5-0.6Mbps.  Good for our rural area.  I've tried various Malware products, singly and in groups.  These include my own Anti-virus Bitdefender, Malwarebytes, SAS and Spybot. With no obvious improvement using this technique, I checked the Web for "How to identify and resolve bottlenecks in XP".  That's when I cam across Tweaking.com.

Hope that helps

Peter
