Author Topic: Computer Suddenly Slow...  (Read 1361 times)

My computer runs smoothly for the first few seconds, then my computer goes ape stuff on me and it jumps to 100% CPU usage.

I'm scanning with Malwarebytes right now, and I have a live antivirus, I tried Advanced SystemCare and CCleaner but that didn't help.

No.  The problem is the computer itself is suddenly slow.  I was able to run Crysis at Medium settings, now I can barely run Pacman at lowest settings.

Ctrl+Alt+Delete.

Try: CCleaner (Extra: un check unneeded startup programs)
Try: If you are on vista...go to Windows 7

Yeah, my 3 computer expert friends say otherwise.
If you are using up to like 50% or more of your hard drive, it tends to start to slow down a tad.
