brianmoyano Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 Hi, how are you? First of all in my signature are my specs. But, i bring it up here for you! Intel® Core™ i5-3570k @ 3.8Ghz Gigabyte GA Z77M-D3H Kingston HyperX 4GB DDR3 @ 1666Mhz Intel HD4000 @ 64MB [VGA] Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200rpm Samsung SyncMaster P2350 23" VGA CoolerMaster Extreme Series 500W The thing is that, with a few open apps like 'Chrome' with one or two tabs, and a music app like 'Vox' the system sometimes hangs. The system is not slow by itself. The transitions and all are pretty smoth and fast. But, for excample if a do right click on the mouse to open the context menu, it takes 5 sec aprox to open. Too much spinning ball. Is it waiting for free memory? Also the apps take too long to open. Is a low-memory problem? I'm planning to get a dedicated video card, so all the 4GB memory is for the system, and not share it with the hd4000. This will solve something? PS: Still not updated to 1.9.2 because i don't want to use the system like that. Do you think it may fix that?

TheDirTchamber Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 If no one is replying, that doesn't mean they are ignoring you... Anyway, I have a similar issue, I think. At boot (not always, it's quite random), I get a lot of HDD activity when the login screen shows up. The mouse cursor moves VERY slow. This goes on for a few minutes and that's it, everything is fine after that.

When i start the system is flawless, but when open more apps, the system goes slow.
