Hi all,

Recently updated the pc from win2kpro sp3 to sp4. The onboard sound card
stopped working. Planning to buy a new pci sound card as nothing worked.

Anway, on May 10th, the win autoupdate updated the pc with the following :

1. Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool - May 2006 (KB890830)
2. Security Update for Windows 2000 (KB913580)

The system was asking for a restart and hence, proceeded to shut down and
didn't turn it back on until a few hours later.

Now, the pc is extremely slow and literally crawling. You click on
anything and by the time it takes to select that, you can have a couple of
sips of java...

Well, for now, autoupdates are disabled (I still wonder how it was "auto
enabled" to being with... as it was always, set to "notify").

Anyway, does anyone know about this?

Any suggestions? I cannot find the kb's to uninstall them in the add/remove
programs.

Thanks in advance,

S
 
Onboard sound; checked your mobo manu site, or laptop manu for
driver/chipset updates?
Latest updates no prob here
Presumably you've scanned for malaware?
 
DL,

Yep, did all that stuff with drivers from mobo website and oem cd's.

Symantec firewall and antivirus are running. Hence, didnt check for
any malaware.

However, will do that and post it if I do find any.

Thanks,
