First I will list everything that I have.
Asus Crossfire mobo
AMD AM2 4200+ Dual core
Dual EVGA 7900GT's
2Gb Corsair XM2 ram
36bg raptor for OS
Windows x64 (all updates)
Sound blaster X-fi
Roswill 600w modular PSU
By no means am I a layman to the computer world but I cannot for the life of me understand why my computer boggs down with just about everything I do. I cant scroll though my songs in WMP. Surfing is slow. my FPS in games is only marginally better than a friend running one 7800gt and a 3700 single core on windows x64. Normally I would think its a virus but I have had kaspersky for a little while and the computer was slow right away after I reformatted. BOIS has been updated and for some reason I regularily use over 1Gb of pagefile. startup seems to take forever like there are 60 processes going but only have 33 total. When it hangs I look at the cpu load and its rarely over 50% on either core.
Any ideas
