Almas Khan Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 So I have a big problem that has been around from Zephyroths and Leo4All insallations I've had for some reason if I use my computer longer than a couple hours everything starts getting choppy and slowing down, this is very apparent if I open warcraft 3 after 5 hours of the computer just sitting on, the game becomes sparatic graphics jittering flying all over the place windows in os x become jaggy and choppy start jumping around. Not sure really whats happening I knows it's not the distro I'm using it's something with my computer anyone have some ideas? System Specs: Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe 2GB Dual Channel Ram AMD Opteron 180 Geforce 8800GT 512MB Again the computer at start is responsive smooth interface not problems after 5 or more hours you can tell the system is getting bogged down for some reason. Thanks for any help. Let me know if more information in a specific area can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well lets just say I'm 99% sure it will solve your problem, but then you will probably be faced with another which is the temperature of your cpu.

Almas Khan Posted April 12, 2008 Author Share Posted April 12, 2008 Okay well I have been running Leopard with the idlehalt=0 kernel flag with my computer running for about 13 hours now I'll try some games to make sure the GUI can hold up but ya looks like this probably has solved the issue . Will report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
