Moving mouse causes comp to slow

prsche68 · 02-24-2005, 03:04 PM

I have a Dell Latitude D505, and for a while it worked really well, but now whenever i move my mouse, everything on my computer slows down. On my task manager whatever window the mouse is in jumps in cpu usage to around 80. I already tried running ad-aware and spybot, and restarting my computer. Thanks

Post a highjack this log and i'll look it over. I can't do the whole analysis, but I can tell you if you might need to go have it analyzed by an expert.

How exactly do you do that?

Get HijackThis . This program will help us determine if there are any spyware/malware on your computer. Run the scan, save the log, but do not fix anything yet. Many files it finds are harmless, and required for your system to operate.

Post your log in a new thread in the HijackThis Log Help forum. This our dedicated spyware/virus forum. One of the expert analysts there will look over your log and assist you. Please include a brief description of the problem you are having and what you have done to fix it so far.

Hope this helps.
