I have an XP box that has been presenting a notification that Microsoft Anti-malware service isn't running/couldn't start. Clicking on the restart button cause the GUI to become unresponsive: The mouse still moves, just no input event are responded to. After-while, something seems to timeout. The malware service notification reappears and the system is once again, responsive. I've disabled the Microsoft Anti-malware Service and am applying, updates, in the hopes that fix is in
support. I've had two customers already today complain of extreme slowness after logging in. Symptoms I've had http://techsupport.foreverwarm.com/windows-xp-slow-msmpeng-exe-error two variations of the problem; One was a VMWare virtual desktop running Windows XP that was extremely slow even after a reboot to get to the login screen. The other was a standard desktop running Windows XP what was slow after the login process. In both cases there was an error message about MSMPENG.EXE and windows 10 a memory reference. Solution In both cases the cause was Microsoft Security Essentials driving the CPU up and/or causing the computer to be unresponsive. MSE, or rather msmpeng.exe pops up a message saying that it no longer works and is having trouble referencing a memory address. The solution in both instances was to uninstall Microsoft Security msmpeng.exe error windows Essentials and the problem immediately went away. UPDATE: Microsoft has now released an update to Microsoft Security Essentials definitions file that finally resolves this issue: find out more Other Related Information:.Net Framework 4 Won't Update ProperlyIE8 Is Slow To Load PagesInternet Explorer 11 ProblemsMicrosoft Phone ScamOutlook 500 error Previous post Next post 2 Comments on "Windows XP Slow MSMPENG.EXE error" Richard | April 17, 2014 at 1:53 am | Reply Another solution is adjusting the virtual memory to "Automatic". This is the way we normally configure our clients' computers but if there is one with the virtual memory manually configured too small, it gives us this error. Hope it helps. technicalguy | April 17, 2014 at 6:48 am | Reply Thanks Richard, virtual memory was not automatic but according to VMWare stats they were well below the memory limit.
