Well lately my computer has been having weird problems out of no where sometimes my computer gets a horrible lagg spike that just freezes the computer and the only way to fix it is to restart like 5 times. Also my internet has been going out and loosing packets but when i run test i find that everything is fine and on thursday 2 techs from comcast came and said that theres nothing wrong with my modem or internet. Also ive noticed it takes so long now for me to load up games when before i use to load in like 2-3 seconds its taking me around 30-50 seconds. I have also noticed it takes so much longer for my windows to load up now and for the programs to run when i restart.

:whistling: :blink: :help: :) :woot: :woot:

I think it is a good idea to start with some cleanup. Use the tools at http://www.geekstogo..._Log-t2852.html to clean up and also scan for any malware. If you should find that you do have malware and you can't clean it up on your own, post a hijack this log in the malware forum.

The load times have me wondering if it's your RAM. How much of your 2 gigs is being utilized?
