How can i speed up my computer?

August 28, 2009

I have a good anti-virus and registry cleaner and i have no viruses. I have recently installed some more RAM but my computer is still a bit sluggish. It is a fairly new model and i was wondering if you have any tips to speed it up?

My computer turns off and on by its self.?

August 27, 2009

This has happened before but it was always related to software. I have put no new software on. I have done a diagnostic and it says everything is ok. This is a Dell Inspiron 9300. My anti virus says no viruses and my spysweeper says no spyware. I did get a message a couple of days ago from my antivirus that said it had quarrantined something that could possibly be a virus. I deleted it and scans since then come up clear. I am also getting a message from my fire wall that says something about ICMP Echo Request (‘Ping’) from (IP addy) and it’s blocking it. Any ideas?
I use avg antivirus, spysweeper, and zone alarm firewall.

How do I uninstall windows xp (without registry info) and reinstall to clean virus-laden computer?

August 16, 2009

My computer is full of viruses and I downloaded avira and zonealarm but I still get trojans every time I start up. A friend told me that I should re-install windows xp and this would fix it, however when I try to UNinstall the xp that’s on there on safemode command prompt it will not let me because I don’t not have the "registry information." However, I believe this would be impossible to obtain seeing as I bought the IBM used! I clearly don’t know very much about this but is there any other way to uninstall windows xp or can I just install it over the old one (or would the damage stick? ) ?
I don’t care about saving old info I just want a clean computer!

Tips are much appreciated 🙂

How to repair winXP system files, damaged by virusese?

August 14, 2009

I am using a multi boot system with WINXP and Ubuntu 7.04. My windows is badly infected with viruses and I have tried many anti-virus software. The all fail to remove the virus. the virus is slowly choking my system to death. Its changing the security policy so i cannot open network connections and stuff. and changing the policy back doesnt help either. I can see that my kernal32.dll shell32.dll and some other system files are infected. should i just delete these files and try a repair with WinXP? If i really need a clean install, the GRUB is lost. Is there a way to restore the GRUB then?
