Dear All,
I am using Windows 2000 as an operating system on my PC
(processor celeron).I frequently get a pop up window
called messenger service which is very irritating.I am not
able to deactivate it.Someone please help.
Second problem I face is the speed of my pc abruptly goes
abysmally slow.The task manager shows 100 % cpu usage.The
processes going on are csrss.exe(@33%) and msnmgr.exe
(@67%).If i click end process button, i get Message:access
is denied.
How to increase my speed and avoid hanging in between?

Thanks in anticipation,

Sudhir Uniyal
 
Hi Sunil,

I am glad to see your posting.

Answer to your first question is, I hope you tried un-installing the MSN
Messenger service from Add/Remove Control Panel.
Try Below mention troubleshooting.

1. Right Click on Startup Icon -----> Explore All Users ( If there is any
Msn Sevice in the Startup Delete it)

Or

2. You need to clean it from Registry

Type REGEDIT in RUN {Enter}

Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER /SOFTWARE/MICROSOFT/WINDOWS/CURRENT VERSION/RUN

{You need to delete MSN Service from in the right Column if you anything
running related to that}

Restart the System.

Answer to your second question to increase the Speed of System is either by
increasing the Page File (Virtual Memory)
When you boot your machine, Windows creates a special file - the swap file
- on your hard drive.

Windows uses that file as auxiliary memory, temporarily storing in there
stuff it does not immediately need to do its work.

Windows' reliance on the swap file is increased when you don't have enough
physical memory, or random access memory. That is especially true if you
are dealing with very large files -- such as those with photographs -- and
if you have a lot of programs loaded into memory.

Although XP can and does increase virtual memory by creating a large swap
file on the fly, the best solution is to add physical memory to the PC.
These days 512 megs is the ideal.

Or

If the system hardware performance is too slow, I would suggest you to
addon more memory.

I hope above answer will be much more practical to start-up.

Thanks and Regards
