So sometime after Valves last update HL2dm started playing terrible on my system, but I play with a bunch of people and I'm the only person who's having this issue. The game seems to be stuttering or slowing down every 10 seconds on...

How do I know which services to disable?

Which ones should i disable?

Okay, but how do I look at the full name of the process? It's cut off, and i can't seem to see the whole thing.

Are we talking about applications or processes? If it's applications only steam and AIM. Under processes its a lot.

I don't really know what stuff I shouldn't get rid of. I've got all the major ones out. I have a virus scan, could that be the problem? It wasn't a problem on my desktop computer,

On my m1710 I have a startup that is kinda slow. I can't really open any programs for atleast a minute after startup. What exactly is it loading? I took off most of the programs on startup, but it's still a bit slow.

Got this game yesterday. I really like it as much as I can stand to play it. It seems to be the only game to give me headaches. Kinda weird. Either way, it's one of the best single player FPS I've played in a long time. I feel like...

How do you do it, and is it safe to do? How much of a performance gain do you get out of it?

Any idea?
