Hi, In your situation I would backup all my data to a cd. I would then reformat the drive and do a fresh install of the operating system. I would use AVG Free for my anti-virus (make sure you download the free version). Now before I reloaded any programs or data I would scan them with the anti-virus. I would not defrag more than once every three months and us the disk cleanup weekly. Good luck with your computer.

Hi, One thing to try first is to startup in the safe mode and see if you have the same problem. If you do I would backup all my data to a cd. I would then reformat the drive and do a fresh install of the operating system. I would use AVG Free for my anti-virus (make sure you download the free version). Now before I reloaded any programs or data I would scan them with the anti-virus. I would not defrag more than once every three months and us the disk cleanup weekly. Link for AVG included. Good luck with your computer.
