The system logs are not indicating anything that i woudl consider the root cause. I'm sure they are having issues and I'm thinking about using SCOM for windows 7 workstation monitoring. Is using SCOM an overkill? Can anybody share their solution for workstation monitoring? There are several reasons can cause system performance issue. You may monitor the performance with Performance Monitor. Meantime, I suggest that you troubleshoot in Clean Boot Mode.
This method can find the root cause if the issue is caused by any background program. Have any users noticed their HDD leds full-go? Every Sunday it seems, I start my computer and can't wrestle control away from whatever background processes are running. After a while, and after fruitless attempts on my part to determine what was causing it, the problem goes away. I strongly suspect that there are weekly tasks that run when the PC is first turned-on, tasks like Experience Index and Performance Diags and only-bill-gates-knows what else.
Stuff that's scheduled for AM Sunday for example, then runs when the PC is booted for the first time after. Anyway you might try to find out if the slowdowns are being experienced upon first startup after a weekend of shutdown. So rather than going through each part of Performance Monitor and explaining it in depth, my aim here is to offer a quick guide to the tool. At the very top level "Performance" gives you an overview of your systems memory usage, network usage, disk usage, etc.
You can right click on "Performance" and connect to another computer to view a remote computers performance statistics. NOTE: Should add brief comments about what is required in order to remotely connect to another machine….
From the Monitoring Tools icon you can right click and launch the Resource Monitor. Resource Monitor is another powerful tool that can help you see how your system resources are being used.
You also have the ability to launch the System Reliability Monitor. This utility allows you to see information about software updates and installations.
You can also see critical events that occurred and on what day those events occurred. Finally, you can see all of the problem reports that have been sent from your computer by clicking on the "View all problem reports" link at the bottom of the window.
The Performance Monitor is primarily for viewing real time statistics. However you can add additional counters by clicking on the green plus sign. This will allow you to monitor any counters you wish in real time. While you can see all of the performance counters you like here, the real power of Performance Monitor is found in its ability to capture performance metrics over an elapsed period of time.
Capturing data over a period of time allows you to see trends and these trends are what are most useful for determining the overall performance of your system. To capture this data, you can create what are called "Data Collector Sets". You can also download Performance monitor portable version which is free. Open Hardware Monitor is another open-source Windows hardware monitoring software that monitors CPU load, temperature, fan speed, voltage, and clock speed.
This tool uses the list format to display the system performance of these elements. You can also download this hardware monitoring tool in Linux for free.
As an open-source product, Open Hardware Monitor is cost-free and easy to install. You can download the program as a file or source code. It can monitor CPU temps of all cores. If your computer has a multiple-core processor it can read all cores. It shows a system summary on a single screen. As informative gadget-free PC Wizard is easy to use, it does not put extra strain on the hardware.
It keeps track of vital computer statistics so that you can prevent computer overheating. This CPU monitoring software can display accurate readings regarding temperatures, voltages, and the fan speed of the PC. This system hardware monitor is very light, free to download, and error-free. Its Pro version is made for professionals which provides some extra features like superior logging capabilities and graphing. But its basic version is also good for all average PC users. HWMonitor 1.
