My husbands computer was running fine when He turned it off yesterday. Today I turned it on and it won't do anything. Took about 6 hours for all my antivirus, Spyware, malware, And registry programs to run and get rid of problems. But it is still slow. My assorted programs are Speed Up My PC, Registry Booster, Spyware Blaster, Spybot, Spy Eraser, AVG, And CCleaner. Ran ALL of them, Found a bunch of problems but no performance change. Constant 100% CPU usage. I go into processes and stop something that is hogging the usage, And another program starts using it all. I would have to stop all the processes to free the CPU. What do I do. My husband took a hammer to 2 other pc's He had that acted up, And I want this one to be around for awhile. To give You an idea how slow it is, It took Me 20 minutes to write this because of the typing being so slow. The pc specs are 2.66 gig P-4 processor, 2 gigs DDR ram, 256 Meg video card, Dvd player, And some sound card. I am the pc person of the house in case You couldn't tell. =) Anyway what do I do?What the hell is wrong with my husbands pc?Reset your husbands pc and while the pc is starting up PRESS F8 and now you should be able to start via Safe Mode. Make sure that the pc is not connected to the internet. Try running all your anti-malware programs while in safe mode (they perform better and faster while in Safe Mode). Remove all malware found. Then restart the pc again. Going to Last Known Good Configuration must only be tried where after doing all anti-malware methods fail.
Or the problem maybe little or no disk space left so you might try freeing more space. (Disk Clean-up).
What the hell is wrong with my husbands pc?restore to a earlier time, also tell your hubby to stop looking at porn!What the hell is wrong with my husbands pc?have you tried restoring the computer to the date that everything was working properly,sound like a virus or spyware problem,you might have to reinstall your operating system again which is time consumingWhat the hell is wrong with my husbands pc?Boot into Safe Mode (F8). Click Start-Run-and type msconfig in the box. When program opens click the Startup tab. Uncheck all of the programs you listed above except AVG. Then restart regular. If it is still slow download a trial of Spyware Doctor from http://www.pctools.com and run it. It will scan and list all of the spyware, malware, etc. on your computer. It won't delete them but at that point you have to but the software. It is well worth it! It sounds like you have an infected PC. Doing a system restore is fine but the problem may return. A friend of mine had a pc that ran slow and Spyware Doctor found over 600 infections. After it removed them his PC ran fine.
