Any body heard of verclsid.exe - MS Verify Class ID seams to make computer run very slow ?

OK tried the lastest SVN still slow and reinstalled MP but still slow any other experiances like this (thinking about moving over to GB-PVR) if not able to resolve issue

OK i have Config open and task manager and mem usage of config is 409,144 k this is huge since i only have 512 megs of ram installed ?

That's way too much memory. Mine runs up about 130MB worth before I start watching something, and I'm running in higher res.

Is it only MP that's slow - or are other things slow as well? Such as playing back a Divx rip, or playing a video game?

I'd certainly consider buying more memory. 1GB sticks go for pretty cheap these days.

See this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918165

Looks like the exe has issues that can slow or break a system.

ok will check out kb/918165 and MS bullsh#t that they keep loading onto my computer to make slower and may upgrate to more ram not that cheap here in NZ

ok just a little update formated HD reloded XP using nLite and striped everthing dint need only drivers added another 256mb of ram now 768mb and my HTPC is ruuing much quicker now .

How did that lite version of XP work for you. I tried and tried but it was always missing something that was not included in the lite version. It was more of a pain to track down everything you needed and hoped that it installed correctly. I finally gave up and said it's not worth it. I installed the full version and then stripped out what I didn't need. This worked a lot better for me.

OK for me ( http://www.nliteos.com/ ) removed most of the things not needed but left the network additions still their (becuase HTPC is on LAN) added update's via nlite's web site and hotfixes was not perfect but trial and error
