Screen you can see what your PC is doing ?

[Japhanser]

Hoi,
Is there perhaps somewhere a program that's shows what my PC is doing at the moment the PC is working ? There's something strange happening with my internetconnection. Sometimes the connection stocks and i hear that the PC is working at that moment but i don't know what's it's doing at that moment. So, i like to see it but i don't know how ? Somebody does how i can see it ?

You have a couple of options.
For the net connection itself . Find a packet sniffer . It will allow you to look at what is being sent across your internet connection

You can also find and Install a process viewer .
That will list every process running in your system at any given time.

yeah, Norton System works has a process viewer, and for the internet info:

get a command prompt and type: netstat

use a ? after that to get more command switches.


also, you may want to go to http://www.dslreports.com/ and use their evaluation tools to check your connnection settings.

Japhanser, Hello and Welcome to The PC Guide Forums
If you are running Win XP hit Ctrl+Alt+Delete and choose the processes tab. The process with CPU usage is the active process. Check running applications on the application tab. You can also check network traffic on the network tab. You can stop a running process or kill a running application from there.
