I am having a major problem with my wifes PC. She is running Windows XP Media
Center Edition. Her system boots up normal enough but during load it will
start dropping out the desktop. I look at task manager and I can see
exlorer.exe running and watch the cpu usage ramp up and then it disappears. a
few seconds later it comes back on and cpu usage ramps back up the it drops
out. I have tried using several different virus software's to try and see if
it is a virus but it only showed one called Generic!Artemis as being found. I
was ble to do a complete scan of the system from a Norton AV bootable CD and
it has not found any other viruses on the system. The system continues to do
the same thing as before. I have even tried reinstalling service pack 3
thinking that the virus might have messed up explorer.exe but that has proved
unsucessful as well. I have gone through some of the registry to seen if I
could find anything unusual in there and even ran a registry repair tool from
Glarysoft but still no luck. Is there something that I am overlooking that I
have not tried yet. I do not want to completely rebuild the hard drive as she
has a lot of data on there that can not be dumped. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks!
