Ghost 15 slows down Windows 7 computer

I have Ghost 15 on several computers.  Two of them with Windows 7 runs very slow with Ghost installed.  Removed Ghost and computer speed increased dramatically.  Slowness is not related to the running of a backup.

Could you create a task to run before the scheduled backup?

can you give me an example of a 'task' which would be appropriate?

Create a task to run CCleaner, your Anti-Virus software update, Windows Update etc.

I'm not having any luck getting my PC to wake up though. You have to have a password on you account. I'll give it a try and let you know.

 

 

It did work. It just did not start exactly at the time set. It took about 45 seconds to start. Also, my screen stayed asleep.

 

I sure wish Ghost could just use the task scheduler.
