YankeePride Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 What exactly is this? I don't have a slowdown problem like some others (I'm lucky, I guess), but I have noticed that when I do, it is because ati2evxx is running at about 90%. My system resources are depleted and MVP can hardly even function with all the mess going on in this process. So, I usually end the process besides getting a warning from my system. Result? MVP runs smoothly and nothing ever happens to my system. So what exactly is this process, if anyone knows and could this find be beneficial to those that are experiencing slowdown issues?

YankeePride Posted May 14, 2004 Author Share Posted May 14, 2004 I'm really not too computer savvy when it comes to things like this, but does ATI have anything to do with my video card? I guess I'm confused. I turn off the process and I can run MVP just fine. But with it on, MVP is slow. Does that make any sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenDammit Posted May 14, 2004 Share Posted May 14, 2004 well if you have an ATI video card then yes its part of your card, but it isn't needed, if you have an Nvidia card then you don't need it and you should clean up the drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YankeePride Posted May 14, 2004 Author Share Posted May 14, 2004 I do have an ATI Video card. It's a Mobility Radeon 7500C. Any idea on how I could stop the process from ever starting up again? It isn't a big issue to close it out all the time, but I still would prefer it never actually started up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't a big issue to close it out all the time, but I still would prefer it never actually started up. I'm not sure how much you have tried, but try editing your "Startup" configuration. Do this by clicking on Start, then Select "Run", type "msconfig" (enter), then click on the "Startup" Tab. There will be a list of things that are run at start up....look for that specific file and un-check the box next to it. Apply and restart. I'm sort of speculating here because I don't have an ATI card...the other possibility is that it is started up as one of the 'services', in which case the process to remove it is different. Post back if it is, and I can walk you through that process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YankeePride Posted May 14, 2004 Author Share Posted May 14, 2004 Thanks, that really helped. It was a Service, but I just disabled it and now it doesn't start up. Thanks, again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
