Hello my name is Johan.
i have a problem regarding my computer.
you see... 3-4 weeks ago my computer started having these strange laggs, both the picture, and the sound is lagging, when it first start.
it is very anooying, and sometime it just completely freezes.
so i tried scanning for spyware and virus, but nothing helped, so in the end i formatted my C:/

all programs were deleted and ive only installed a few drivers back on again.
but the problem is still there...
it usually starts after 30-45 min. and then the CPU usage raises to 90-100%, EVEN THOU no programs is running... the mouse is lagging even when i have no programs opened, and restarting the computer doesnt work...

so i figured it gotta be some sort of hardware problem. i think its either the CPU that's broken, or the motherboard, but which one?
can somebody please help me out with this program, i would really love that

here is some HiJackThis results: i figured they might help ^^

(sorry for spamming there was no other easy way)

You could check the cpu heatsink to see if it is seated properly and re-aply thermal compound, but I suspect that you might have some bad capacitors...(they look like little cans) if you see any that are rounded at the top, then that is your problem...can style capacitors are flat on the top, but will swell if they go bad, or sometimes they just explode. Also look at your "pc health status" in your bios, and see if your voltages are jumping all over the place...if they are, then you might have a bad power supply.
I can't think of anything else for now, but this should help narrow the prob down.
I hope it helps,
Doc

Edit: You might also think about re-seating all your cards including the ram.
 
Well, judging by experience try checking what your cpu temperature gets up to, either in the bios, or by a cpu monitoring program. I recently learned that if a CPU gets too hot, it will underclock itself as a security measure. This can lead to your cpu from being 100% functional with 40% usage, to 50% functional at 80% usage.

I could be wrong, but it's something to try. You would end up needing to get a new heatsink/fan to help keep it cool.
 
the temperature while lagging is only 44 degreese celsius. i checked it today :p what else can be wrong mate?
plz post replies quickly
 
The machine is probably lagging from cross-posting this to 5 seperate threads.
