Hello Everyone!
Just about a week or so ago my computer went haywire and slowed up a ton and the sound playback skips and just generally sucks. At first i thought malware but i've run multiple scans with my Symantec AV and I did an online scan with Kaspersky - Nothing was found.
I did a disk cleanup, deleted about 20GBs of files that were old/I didn't want or need (the hard drive Was getting a bit full - only about 5GB free space but now it has about 25GB of free space). I updated all my drivers, did the HP online diagnostics, etc. Everything has come back fine.
It seems like something keeps hogging up the CPU intermittently, I've tried shutting down unnecessary processes that hog CPU usage but still it stays slow, sometimes it's alright, but most of the time it's slow. And the sound still sucks no matter what on playback, and i've tried using different media players - even system sounds skip!
So here's my HijackThis log and system details, and hopefully someone can help me figure out what's going on here.
Thanks a bunch!
