It might also explain why I my Dino Crisis videos were so laggy. Ended the task, disabled it on startup, and now my stream seems to be working a lot better.
Don't know if this means I'll be able to record PS1 games on my emulator, but I'll take this victory regardless. **** Hewlett Packard.
Will probly do a stream today in a few hours. Might pick up Super Metroid or start Chrono Trigger. I really miss playing Chrono trigger, and it's not a grind heavy game (I don't know how you would stream a Final Fantasy game, unless you already had a big audience to pick up your slack by competing to make the most pithy comment in chat while you grinded).

Happy to hear it. Often times there are background apps that start up automatically when you turn on your computer and my suggestion would to turn off all the ones that you don't use upon start up. I think you can do that in the control panel. If it takes a little while to start your computer up, that's probably why that happens. My computer completely starts up in less than a minute because I don't have unnecessary background apps going. It's really nice.
