My laptop seems to really dislike Google, it runs silly slow with it and there always seems
to be shit loads of google processes running in task manager,
The hard drive always seems to be working hard and I keep getting a memo popping up saying

'High memory usage
host process for windows services'


Has anyone got a resolve for this or an alternative as it's driving me crazy.


I have run anti virus and its not picking anything up.

 

Firefox is pretty good.

Never had issues with that.

 

google chrome is my fav browser but unfortunately I have issues similar to yours with it on one of my laptops. Also have flash problems because of it regardless of what I do so I use firefox on that machine and its spot on.

Funny you should mention the flash problems, I'm the same.

I'll uninstall google now and try firefox.

 

Firefox is the most memory hungry browser followed by chrome, Internet Explorer that opera I suggest Internet Explorer and try to minimise open tabs also disable windows search indexing and run a registry cleaner

 

i'm finding this too recently, i've got windows 8 recently installed with a new sshd.

 

How do I disable windows search indexing?

 

Click Start then Computer or open Windows explorer

Right Click on the C: Drive and select "Properties"

On General Tab, Uncheck Allow files on this drive to have contents indexed in addition to file properties

On the subsequent dialog box, Select Include subfolders and files

Repeat for any further drives or partitions you have

Click OK to save and exit.
