HELP! Avast Pro 4.8.1368 (Memory Usage Problem) XP-SP3
« on: February 05, 2010, 12:37:53 PM »
Avast Pro 4.8.1368
CPU Intel Mobile (P4) 2.20GHz
512MB Ram
Win XP-SP3


Please Help!
Avast Freezing my PC!
I formated my PC and installed a new fresh Win XP-SP3
then installed Avast 4.8 for the first time of my life!!!
my system is slow and keeps freezing since i installed Avast!

especially when i play Farmville!!! :D
Firefox keeps freezing and then it shows me that system out of memory!
i had no such a problem before i install Avast AntiVirus!

take a look at my Task Manager's pic please.


Any Help!!!
Thx!

I don't think it's a good idea!

There's nothing in the task manager picture that shows that you're using too much memory or anything hogging the CPU.

I used to run 4.8 with XP-SP3 and then version 5 beta with no problems, with FF3.5.

Is there any more information you can give us?

Maybe try a repair install on version 4.8... ?

Is there anyway you can upgrade the memory on your computer? 512Mb is about the bare minimum you can run really.

regards, Gizbar.
