Slow website response

[uwisuwerme7]

I bought a 7600gt hoping it would speed up my video response from some webpages.
Mostly this one.
www.takingbacksunday.com
It has a lot of flash on the page after you enter the site and it makes the video response very slow.
Is this normal?

My specs are
E6300
Intel 965wh
2 gig Corsair ram
400 watt Zalman
EVGA 7600gt

I don't see how the videocard would be at fault as long as it wasn't from 7 years ago. Could be IE, your internet connection, or Flash itself. I use Opera which is similar to FireFox. Both are easier and 300% less buggy than Internet Explorer.

Congrats on the 7600GT anyhow. Get some games and have some fun now. 😀

Yeah, last time I checked flash wasn't hardware accelerated, it did everything on the CPU.

 

[uwisuwerme7]

I was thinking IE or Flash
It does the same thing at work cause I tried it
We have a 7300LE there
Not much, but it's a webpage ya know.

 

[uwisuwerme7]

so basically there is no remedy to this besides a faster cpu?
I would think mine is plenty fast enough for flash.
I know that the cpu usage is around fifty if i leave it all visable, but i got very similar results on my sempron 2800+ laptop

I think that you are seeing a problem with your internet connection. I just loaded the page on my main computer (E6600 running at stock speed) in FireFox. It loaded almost instantly. To check if it was just this computer, I loaded the page on my old Dell P4 @ 1.3 Ghz. I loaded it in both Firefox and IE7. They both loaded nearly as fast as the main box. I have very low level graphics cards in both boxes, as I use them for audio work. I am on cable broadband.

What is your internet connection?

 

[uwisuwerme7]

It's not the internet.
Everywhere i've checked it has high speed.
And i'm saying if the page is done loading.
It takes about a second or so to load.
But like scrolling after the page is 100% loaded it's jumpy still until you get past the flash animations.
I will try FireFox I guess.

I sounds like spyware or a virus or something that slowing your systems down. What do you have running one the computer for programs?

I have high speed and it loads in a second or two and none of the graphics are slow. This is on a V4310NR with 1GB of memory on a wireless network. Plus I do have the none of the junk software installed.

 

[art0l0]

How much system memory do you have?

 

[uwisuwerme7]

Two gigs.
and not much running besides normal stuff.
Legit XP Pro

 

[uwisuwerme7]

My system is clean.
I know about checking that stuff.
I've never had a virus.
I'm a technician so I know what i'm doing.
Just didnt know if ya'll knew any problems with Flash, or compatibility issues.

 

[advcomp2019]

Do you have IE7? I tried it on my other computer with IE7, and there is a jumping in the graphics once in a while.

 

[art0l0]

On the old Dell I used to see problems once in a while. I would load a bunch of pages in tabs and get low on memory (I only had 384 Mb and it was Rambus, so not worth upgrading). I think that most of that problem was due to paging.

 

[Blacken]

It's probably Flash or IE. Try FireFox. It's not as usless as IE. IE is a system drain.

I just checked and your not alone! pretty trippy that is on that site. I'm still on socket 478 and I got the same thing. I also used IE7 to check.

 

[uwisuwerme7]

I'm on IE6 Cause I hate 7.
And the new Media Player too.
Seems like all the options are gone.

its your internet conection.

and/or

the site you are visiting.

and how much traffic they have.

What he's getting is when you move down the page and see the frame being created streaming downward in a choppy wave-like motion - as you were browsing with the windows vga drivers it comes with. As long as everything is installed, it's Flash, IE, or you have 20 prog's in the background eating on your CPU and ram. Remembering that your videoram memory bus is 128bit may not help with heaps of intensive applications in the background.

oh ok. well it may be so then.

i was thinking that he was having problems with just that site.

 

[sirheck]

i was thinking maybe that site,s server has a problem.

The site comes in fine on my comp. Try different browsers & check for spyware or something else taking up cpu & internet bandwidth.

[grifter33]

just went to the site with both IE6 and Firefox. Firefox loaded everything instantly, IE6 hung up for a good 3-4 seconds then slowly started to load. Might be the browser you're using.

 

[JMecc]

I used IE7 so maybe there is an issue with IE6 if Grifter33 experienced it. Try Opera too; I didn't really like Firefox as my linux + windows alternate but Opera is pretty easy to use and nice to look at.

My dad still has IE6. He is having the same problem with other web sites. I am wondering if the M$ updates is trying to kill IE6 so they have people have to upgrade IE7.

 

[elpresidente2075]

It might be something to do with the servers between him and the site. It may be that the local ISP is having problems with the connection to that part of the country and the connection is slow to that server.

Not likely, but its a thought...
