Crash/High CPU Usage

Post by msirianno »

I have YoWindow set up as my screensaver. For some reason, it no longer works, just hangs when screensaver tries to start. I've also noticed that when I run YoWindow from my desktop, it shows loading, with very high cpu usage, and does nothing. I have to end process on it thru task manager. What's going on? I had high hopes on this software, but have had too many issues since installation. It might be good eye candy, just disappointed it doesn't perform as advertised.

Hi msirianno
There is nothing wrong with yowindow.
All my Pc's works very well
windows 7 3Gb Ram CPU 2%
window xp 2 Gb Ram CPU 3%
Window 7 3 Gb Ram CPU 2%
Window Vista 2 Gb Ram Cpu 4%

I think that there is someting wrong in your pc. Maybe a conflict with another program.

I just tried to run it again (it actually worked yesterday with no problems) and it is showing 97% CPU with approximately 550 mb of memory being used...and NOTHING IS HAPPENING. I am going to uninstall and reinstall and see what happens.

I uninstalled / reinstalled YoWindow. Things appear to be back to normal. Not sure what caused the high cpu/memory usage issue.
