Yes, the computer is slow when GIMP is not running.
I shall rename the GIMP directory and re-evaluate, thanks.
Never heard of bitcoins before, so dunno what you meant by that?? Googled bitcoin and bitcoin mining, but haven't put together yet, how that would apply to my computer.
BTW, the computer was not connected to the internet yesterday at the time of the latest sluggishness.
Last night, after work, I fired the 'puter up again just to check, and it seemed to run fine, although my other image editing software
was acting up, in that the RAW development module was not functioning as expected.
Yesterday, when the computer was non-responsive, I barely had access to Task Manager, but when I finally was able to open TManager, I couldn't locate any processes hogging cpu or gpu resources, even though the computer was still running poorly. Disk usage, however, was at 100%, now that you mentioned it.
At this moment, my laptop is not present, so I don't have access to the URL I used for the GIMP download, but it was from Partha's website.
Thanks again, I appreciate your input and will check the points you have mentioned so far...!!
