I had to reformat drive C after being infected by trojan(s)/virus(es)
After reinstalling windows xp pro, the PC has considerably slowe
down. Booting up takes all of 4 minutes. Using windows explorer t
transfer files takes forever, and according to task manager uses al
of 100% of the CPU. Running two programs simultaneously like window
explorer and Microsoft word for example, is virtually impossible. I
almost slows down to a stop.
The RAM seems to be Ok. CPU has a temp of 50 degrees; mother board 3
degrees Celsius despite having a room temp. 25 degrees only. Fa
running at 2800 rpm
BTW my PC's specs
P4 2.66 GH
AsRock mobo 77
1 GB RAM (512 MB DDR333 x2
200 GB Seagate SATA HDD [Drives C&D] and
160 GB Seagate SATA HDD [Drives E&F
GeForce 128 MB Video car
420 Watts tower cas
Asus DVD combo driv
Are there any BIOS settings I have to configure? Should I reformat th
enitre physical drive [C&D]
Norton AV 2005, Spybot and AD-Aware says my system is clean
I also just bought another 250 GB IDE HDD and DVD writer. Will I b
needing more power to run all three HDDs and two DVD ROMs
Thanks for any ideas
