lagging....

ok well just started up my laptop, and it seems that the two processes that automatically run for the omega drivers, they are like atixx.exe or something, are not running. i decide to try out a game and see if i notice a lagging difference. so i start up ut2004, all looks alright, no problems. i exit the game, and my windows minimize very slowly. it is like something is running and making my fan turn on but i dont know what. the only thing on my processes list that is taking up cpu usage is the system idle process. odd because my actual graph shows that none of my cpu is being affected. i am wondering if this is a bug with unreal or something to do with my drivers. any advice?

no, but hummm... i posted no more than a minute ago, and you responded, bravo! and now a minute later, my windows minimize normally....but the fan is still running....hummmmm

EDIT: OK I FOUND IT.....the problem starts when i have trillian running...wonder why...when i exit trillian, windows minimize normally....
ah, also i have hacked the theme file which will allow me to make my own custom visual styles. when i switch back to a microsoft made visual style, and have trillian running, all works....hummm

Hacks usually do mess up Windows somehow. A couple of things lag in Windows for me as well because I patched it to modify the theme, but I've learned to work around them. Good luck working out your problem

So does anyone know what the advantage of having those omega processes running all the time is? i will probably stick with the same hacked theme....
