Convert Monkey takes a long time to start up, why?
| |
On a 64MB RAM Windows 98 computer, Convert Monkey should take about 2 to 4 seconds to load. Longer start up times may be attributed to the following factors:
1.
|
Some 3rd party programs such as virus scanners may interfere with Convert Monkey when it first loads thereby increasing start-up time. Closing these 3rd party programs before launching Convert Monkey should solve the problem.
|
2.
|
Installing Convert Monkey over a network or on a slow disk drive, floppy drive or cd will increase the time it takes for Convert Monkey to start.
|
3.
|
Convert Monkey saves the last target folder on exit. When you load Convert Monkey, if there are more than 300 files in that folder, Convert Monkey will display a progress bar while loading targets. You can cancel this by clicking on the cancel button.
|
4.
|
Convert Monkey saves the last target folder on exit. If this folder is on a slow disk drive, floppy drive or cd, this will increase the time it takes for Convert Monkey to start.
|
5.
|
Convert Monkey may be slower on older computers with less than 64 MB RAM and/or processors of less than 400MHz
|
6.
|
If your computer has not been optimized then Convert Monkey and all other tasks on your machine will take longer to run.
Over time, you may have accumulated programs and spyware that you no longer use. These will run in the background of your machine and eat your computers' resources.
You will need to remove these to speed up your computer.
