#22 how to make your xhair brighter than the sun in Customization

Yeah, two crosshairs is probably the way to go with that one.

#19 how to make your xhair brighter than the sun in Customization

I went into broeselhud and made my own edit to it, removed most of the backgrounds, and made a white layer with all text/crosshair black. Turned out pretty nice IMO, still in development, but if someone wants I could put up a DL link

#12 General computer slowdown in Hardware

I did some more research, and found this:

What is csrss.exe?

A Microsoft Windows file stored in the c:\windows\system32 or c:\winnt\system32 directory that has the file description: "Client Server Runtime process." This file 

Is this file a spyware, trojan, or virus?

The csrss.exe file included with Microsoft Windows is not spyware, a trojan, or a virus. However, like any file on your computer it can become corrupted by a virus, worm, or trojan. antivirus programs can detect and clean this file if it has become infected. Because this file is part of Microsoft Windows users should never delete or remove this file if they think it is infected, let the antivirus program handle it.

Is it safe to remove csrss.exe from the Task Manager processes?

No. The csrss.exe is a critical system process that cannot be removed from the Task Manager without causing issues with Windows. When attempting to End Process the csrss.exe you will receive the Unable to Terminate Process window with the error "This is a critical system process. Task Manager cannot end this process." It is normal to receive this error.

[u]The csrss.exe file is using 99%, 100%, or other high abnormal percentage of CPU.

This issue is caused when your Microsoft Windows profile is corrupt. To resolve this issue requires that you delete and recreate the profile. To do this follow the below steps.

Backup all the files in My Documents as they will be lost. It's also recommended you backup any other important files you may be concerned about loosing. 
Log out of the account that is causing the problem and into a different account. If you do not have another account you can create a new account through the User Accounts icon in the Control Panel. 
Once in the other account right-click My Computer icon and click Properties. 
In the Properties window click the Advanced tab. 
In Advanced click the Settings button under User Profiles. 
Finally, in the User Profiles window highlight the name of the profile that is encountering this issue and click the Delete button. 
Once the profile has been deleted you can recreate it if you wish to use the same profile name.[/u]

I work for Mcafee.

I tried playing with the task manager in the corner of my screen and noticed csrss taking up a lot of CPU time when it slowed down, so I'll try this.

#10 General computer slowdown in Hardware

No, just ethernet, though, the router I'm connected to is complete shit. It still seems to be more of a hardware/software problem to me, just because of how it slows down everything, regardless of being connected to the internet.

I'm pretty much the inverse of that- I have shit gamesense and planning, but pretty good DM. Hit me up whenever.

OblivionageWaldoEDIT: Ran all tests again, this time with my CPU overclocked to 4.2GHz, got only around 15 more fps, does anyone know why my results are so shitty?
The x1xx series for AMD's FX processors are pretty bad. What resolution do you play on? You might want to save up a $140 and buy a 6300 or a little bit more and get a 8350 in the future because for tf2 the 4100 might not get you the best fps. Though you can always try overclocking more if you feel safe and have a good cooler.

I'm running a Hyper 212, so I can probably OC this to 4.6 or 4.8, the point is that if TF2 only utilizes 2 cores, shouldn't a 4 core CPU @ 4.2 outdo an 8 core CPU @ 3.5?

#3 tf2 fantasy league in TF2 General Discussion

Maybe just a generalized gambling pool at the start of each ESEA season as to who gets the most kills, dmg, ubers, etc, since I know esea already keeps track of all that stuff.

#7 General computer slowdown in Hardware

No, I'm reasonable certain it has nothing to do with internet, I have pretty good speeds. Though, I can try playing with several browsers opening while playing tf2 to see if it happens more often, having 6 installed can sometimes be helpful.

EDIT: Tried opening Firefox, IE, Chrome, Comodo, and Opera at the same time, after they were all booted up I noticed a significant increase in the rapidity of dropping frames. I'll be going along steadily at 300 and then suddenly drop to ~60 for a few seconds and then stabilize back to 300 over time.

Add as many as you want, change the intervals, etc. This will cycle through them.

Went through and removed old mouse and keyboard drivers, turning off other programs one at a time to try and find what the problem is.

It happens even when I'm just sitting on my desktop.

Now that I think of it, I'm also running Whatpulse, which is basically a benevolent keylogger that gives you statistics. I.E

Might be that.

#1 General computer slowdown in Hardware

So, for the last month or so, my computer has been randomly slowing down for small amounts of time for no particular reason. Programs will freeze, frame rates in TF2 will drop horrendously, my mouse and keyboard will get really choppy and inconsistent, all for around 2 seconds every few minutes, then just go back to normal. Framerates in TF2 have also been lower than usual. (~80 at high stress moments, usually around 130)

Things I know are not the problem:

CPU overheating (remains <40c 24/7)
RAM (Have 16GB)
Hardware (Keyboard has worked flawlessly for the last 6 months, tried multiple mouses which I got more recently)

Running programs that I think might be the problem:
McAfee
Rainmeter
Windows Defender

Any ideas?
