Hi. I am using Vista Home. I reformatted my harddrive (when the harddrives
are wiped and a clean windows is installed) about a week ago. Ever since
things have been acting buggy, and several major problems have sprung up.
- First, internet explorer freezes up and doesn't respond after some
surfing. When I try opening another tab it also happens. I try to x out, and
it just stays up, not responding.
So task manager?
- Second, when I go to the task manager to look around, that doesn't end
programs. It too either freezes up, or when I CAD, a black screen loads with
a 'Failure Security Options' popup.
- Third, I thought it might be the antivirus I had, so I uninstalled the
Norton AV and installed AVP 8.0. It picked up 2 trojans, and after that
nothing. After that, I restarted and then couldn't log onto the internet. I
finally am able to now after constant restarts and the like.
- Fourth, On the subject of 'restarts', when things freeze up, I can't
restart. I have to hold down the power, which I know isn't good. Everything
just siezes up. >.<
And finally, Fifth, I tried doing a disk defrag, and it just won't load.
When I go to the task manager, it shows it's running, but with very little
memory, and not showing up. When I click to run again, another defrag comes
up but not avail to me. When I try to end, task manager freaks out.
Should I do another restore, or is there something I can do to fix this,
thank you.
