I open these applications in my desktop computer:

  • Visual Studio 2010 Professional
  • IBM Lotus Notes
  • Google Chrome

And when it is idle for an hour and I restore the windows, the user interface responds very slowly. My computer auto-lock itself after being idle for 5 minutes. I also minimize the applications using a docklet (RocketDock).

Why is it slowing down and how can I prevent it from slowing?

My OS is Windows XP Professional SP3, Pentum(R) Dual Core @ 2.80 GHz, 1.99 GB of RAM.

Please help. Thanks in advance.

Please check your RAM usage, as windows is probably paging (Copying to disk) these memory intensive programs that are idle.

see this post: How to reduce disk thrashing (paging)?
