Slow motion

[Guest]

H

My Dell Laptop (Inspiron 8000) has after a long period of working perfectly gone into extreme slow motion

I don't know how else to describe the problem than this. It basically seems to be operating at 1-5% processing speed from the moment I turn it on.
??

Can anyone give me any direction?
Any help would be greatly apreciated

Thank

Henrik

Use your System Recovery disks and do a "repair" install.
Make the CD drive your first boot device in the BIOS.
Put the first CD in the tray, restart, and most machines tap the spacebar as pasting
begins.

Do you have your machine protected?
Up to date AVP, and a firewall
You can run an online scan at

You also need to learn to make and ERD and full backup, and keep those on hand.
The Emergency Repair Disk is made in the Backup menu.

Press CTRL SHIFT ESC then goto the Processes Tab to see which process is
hogging the CPU time. It may be a wrom/virus.
