In a previous post I wrote that I thought the box was running slowly due to being hacked within days of first turning it on - so I bought the Restore Stick and started from scratch.
It made no difference - since day 1 this box has been unusably slow. It goes from fairly slow response to a mode where any mouse click can take a minute or more to do anything and programs take many minutes to start. Even moving a window can take 10-15 seconds, and I have disabled all special video effects.
Even from the first boot-up when I bought it, and after the Restore, and with HomeSeer HS2 (29) not running.
The Task Manager window does not show any cpu hogs at the time, and can be showing around 5% cpu usage and 250 mbytes while the machine is virtually frozen. Sometimes Task Manager stops and even the mouse gets jerky.
I am out of ideas - please help,
bob
