Hey guys,

When I first got this laptop, everything ran smoothly. I could play any game a 2.1GHz CPU could run and I could play online without any lag. These pasts couple of weeks my performance has been utter SHIT. I haven't installed anything I can think of that would effect this. From one day to the next I got really lousy performance and really slow internet. I tried using gamebooster to lighten the load on my CPU, and now with only 5% of the CPU being used it still takes a year to get a firefox window up. Then when I'm in youtube, facebook, bf2s, etc. takes forever to load up.

I've tried:

Defragmenting, anti-virus scan, shutting down unnecessary programs, and running gamebooster.

I'm sick of this performance. I used to be playing Battlefield Heroes just fine, now it's a gay frame rate and lag. Then I get on L4D 1&2 which never gave me problems and now I'm fine with frame rate but still doing lousy on lag.

damn it

Here's something even more gay.

So I plugged in my ethernet instead of using wi-fi and I get this in my network settings.

Linksys is our neighbor's wi-fi and I had wi-fi turned off so it couldn't connect. What - the - fuck?

OffT: Downloading internet porn is for retards, there are probably thousands of online sites that don't even require you to download some virus-ridden flash player.

i find your usage of gay highly inappropriate and disrespectful to the homosexual community

1) Your view does not change the meaning of words for everyone else.

2) If you're citing Louis C.K, funny as he is, on something related to offensive material or political correctness: you're doing it wrong.

I'm sure you're a model citizen though Churchill.

I'll run a full system scan soon. Last time I did a boot system scan with avast I had 22 "Minor" threats. I haven't been downloading much lately. When I do download I always scan it first before. Weird...

I would never download porn. That's just asking for a virus.

I do use uTorrent for movies though But I scan them first, I would think that would catch them. Oh well...running a full system scan now. Will run a boot scan when I can waste a few hours. I tried one earlier and like I said, it found 22 threats @ 38% when I woke up in the morning. The gay AV wants confirmation despite me saying "DELETE ALL" for system files...

I'm sure there's a few good sites out there.

I have finished a full system scan and a specific file scan where all the threats were detecting last time. I found one more threat and I deleted it. So, I'll have to do a boot scan sometime and see if anything shows there.

If it's not a virus, what else could be slowing my computer down?

How do I get rid of these? Avast is just an anti-virus.

So, now I've got several options here. Which do you recommend?

ok

On a side note, I didn't get a Windows 7 CD, when I turned the computer on it just automatically started reinstalling. If I want to reformat and reinstall everything I would need to go into the BIOS and change the boot order to whatever the Windows 7 stuff is stored on and boot on that right?

I can't figure out what key is for the BIOS, stupid laptops. I'm unfamiliar with 'em. I learned the POST and all those things with computers.

This computer doesn't seem to have the screen with a "Press F8, DEL, or w/e; for BIOS." Instead it starts with a VAIO screen and immediately goes to "loading windows."

I want to reformat anyway, and I don't have a Windows 7 disk, the PC just installed Windows 7 when I turned it on the first time. I'm going to do some googling but if anybody can help me out it's well appreciated. I just want to reformat!
