Hoping someone can give me some helpful info. I have an HP Pavillion
754N. It
has 512ram. I have 46.9 GB of hard drive space free. The PC has been
running
slowly in all applications, email , Internet, etc. When I bring up task

manager any function I do, search for a web page, bring up an email it
shows
100% cpu and runs very slowly. I have defragged, I have deleted every
old
program I could find, I have removed all profiles except mine and I
completely removed that and added it back in for a fresh profile. I ran
a
disk cleanup in windows and a disk clean in mcafeee. I even went to
HP's
website and ran their disk and memory checks, no errors found. I ran
spybot
for spyware , I changed performance settings to adjust for best
performance.
I am hoping someone out there has some other suggestions as my last
option is
a complete restore which will take me hours to recover from Any
suggestions
will be greatly appreciated


I have a similar problem CPU usage at 80%+ disk continually being
accessed which affects performance. Feels like a virus we had three or
so years ago but I have completed the same tasks as above, run full
virus and spyware checks, latest MS Malicious software removal tool in
full mode, scanned the services for suspects and stopped those that I
knew I could do without. Next try maybe IrpTracker? Lots registry
manager products make speedup claims which do not seemed to be
supported by MS help systems, anyone out like to comment on that?

Restating above - all input gratefuly received. Darryl
