i have a way annoying problem with my pc and i was wandering if anyone out there can shed some light on the matter.
a few days ago my computer suddenly went really slow. the windows load up sequence(sp 2) was taking about 3 times the time is usually took. I go into my user area and everything is loading up ok, and i whack some music on. the music is well choppy to start with and if i try and load anything it starts to get all choppy as it loads. it seems wheneva the little load icon is up my music goes really really slow, this is the same for games aswell, they seem to be running soo much slower and are barely playable.
atm im running sumthing like 2.66g pentium 4, 256meg ram, 128 graphics card, some sound card i dont know about blah blah yeah.
so far ive:
ran the full professional version and adaware, cleared everything and added a watch
defragged my C:\
cleared up my C:\ and freed up loads of space
installed zone labs security firewall thing and blocker (full version)
ive done some online virus scan with this panda website??? but that kinda froze up while it was clearing the virus's cos there was loads in there
can anyone tell me whats wrong with my computer and if there is anything i can do about it? recomend any good virus scanners or anything?
cheers lads
