i have been using HMT3 for a while now, and i think its finally cracked on me, grown old, lost its nut etc

i have this problem, when i click 'batch extract' and select the folder i want, then i check 'extract metadata' only, so i start and it takes soooooooooooooooooo long, last time i extracted all things, and it took 2.5 hours!,

i kno this isnt normal, what is wrong wid dis?, and what can i do to fix it?, ive tried reinstalling it also.

Well....only time will tell.

Also, your comps RAM could be a little stressed.

Just try not to run alot of big programs at once...ya know what I mean?

Just take it easy for a day or so.

Try to close almost all toolbar programs when running halo.

That shouldn't put to much wear on your comp.

Thats just my 2 cents.

yeah, or if it doesnt pass, try making a gaming account (make an account on ur comp that has no processes running except plug and play and maybe windows installer)
