alienpi Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 I like the ESET free online scan along with Hitman second opinion virus scanner. Usually computers have built in diagnostics; i'd check the manufacturer's website on how to access the diagnostics. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 As a secondary line of defense, I've been using Microsoft Security Essentials. My first line is Eset's NOD32. Beyond that, more important than you hating the computer is that in reality, the computer hates you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWing'R Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 IF he cant fix it I'm just gonna reformat, thankfully i just backed up last week+1 for doing backups, often!I also use a external hd for everything, that way if the pc gets corruptedand needs to be replaced I still have all my data. I keep very little on theactual computer hd. This was a lesson learned the hardway unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
