PC very slow

Deano045 · 01-09-2007 4:03pm #1

hi,
all of a sudden my pc has gone very slow, boots up grand, the when i go to click some thing there a real long delay, have to leave it turned on for around an hour to get any proper responce out of it, if i go to shut down, the shut down or restart button isnt there in the start menu,

i try'd using system restore, but when i pick a date and click next it doesnt respond,

any body any ideas? its very hard to try locate the problem because of it not responding,,

thanks
Dean

If it's windoze then boot into safe mode and run anti-virus & spyware. Might be a virus, or possibly even hardware probs.

Run HijackThis and paste a logfile here. All the details are in the FAQ sticky.

press ctrl alt and delete to see what processes are running.there is sometimes a problem with process svhost.exe using alot of processor power.

Jesus, dont waste your money man. Just reinstall windows. After backing up all your data. And make yourself the administrator too.
