I just reinstalled and formated my hdd bc a file in windows was corrupted and
it wouldnt start up and bc i needed a format. My computer was running
perfectly with xp. 2.25ghz pentium 4 and 512 ram. after the format/install,
i went on the internet with no protection and i got about 5 trojans/ads/ or
viruses. it slowed down windows like crazy so i did another format and
installed it again. i then first installed nod32 and spysweeper. now,
windows is still slow and buggy. i updated until right before sp2. doing
any windowxp thing is slow and will usually freeze like going to control
panel or even closing a program through task manager. clicking programs is
slow, literally any medium intensive work will take a long time or freeze and
when it freezes it doesnt unfreeze. even ending process from task manager
sometimes doesnt work. when i installed sp2, in the middle it said access
denied and i had to uninstall everything. How did this happen, i dont know.
fresh copy of windows, with two adminstrative accounts. any help appreciated.
