Hi everyone
First of all I'd like to admit one thing: I'm a newb.
I really don't know a lot about computers, and therefore I'd appreciate if you would be more specific than you are normally when you explain all these tecnichal things to me :laugh:
Now to the problem:
My computer keeps freezing for a few seconds every once in a while.
It's not very often, but about every 15-20 minute or so. It's a problem when I'm gaming though :normal:
I tried running my avast! Anti-virus Pro, and it found something called "Win32 Spyware-gen" or something. I moved it to the virus-chest, and didn't expect anymore problems.
I'm not sure about this, but I think it might have helped a little. I'm still having the problem though.
I think the problem occured when I tried to download something for a game. I went to FPSbanana and tried to download a skin for Counter Strike: Source.
At this point I've tried following:
Defragmenting (Smart Defrag 2)
1. Running "Advanced System Care 4" - Deep Care
2. Running "Glary Utilities"
3. Running avast! (Found Win32 Spyware-gen and moved to virus-chest)
4. Going to Start -> Control Panel -> System and Maintenance -> Device Manager and from here I right click on all the hardware and select "Update driver".
5. Doing "System Restore" to the earliest date possible.
As said it might have helped a little, but I don't think the problem is solved completely.
Do you guys have any advices?
Thank you in advance! :wave:
