I used to play World of Warcraft and Counter Strike:Source,the games ran fine. Was able to play them for about 2 months and all the sudden my PC started running really slow,then games started freezing,I tried all sorts of other games and it did the same thing,I have a hijack scan which i will attach.If this isnt adware/malware what else could it be?

Hi Gaming Magic,

 

pyrath is right, have a look at those:

Remove Anti-Virus Elite, AntiVirus Elite removal help

23 Dec 2009 ... Anti-Virus Elite is yet another rogue security application. It presents itself as a virus remover while it's actually a computer infection.

www.spywarevoid.com/remove-anti-virus-elite-antivirus-elite-removal-help.html -

-------------------------------

 

Try running with Weather Bug off.

C:\Program Files\AWS\WeatherBug\Weather.exe

 

If you don't have the Norton, what is the following for?

C:\Program Files\Symantec\LiveUpdate\AluSchedulerSvc.exe

 

Please check the following with VirusTotal: Even if it is clean, I would try to stop the service and try.

C:\Program Files\Viewpoint\Common\ViewpointService.exe

 

Check your Java if it is the latest one 1.6.0_18

Download JavaRa and run to get rid of old Java clutter.

 

 

Cheers.

Hi gaming Magic,

 

Me also play CS:S. If you can tell me your computer details, like graphic card what version of DirectX you have installed etc. I can help you a bit more if you want with playing and smoothing CS:S. I have also a config for it, but before we do that, pls give some details about your hard drives.

Dear gaming magic,

 

I don't know it you are using ASC but if you are using it, pls do the following.

 

Start it up go to "Utilities" -> "Admin tools" -> "System information".

 

If that is open, do the same as me in the attachment, and take a similar snapshot so I can have a look.

 

|I presume you have Windows XP installed"

If you don't have ASC, go to your desktop.

Right click and go to properties -> Settings -> Advanced -> Adapter.

Enoskype is right, 512 mb of total ram is just to low to play proper a game.

 

What you can do is lowering your graphic details and lower the resolution in game. Also use Gamebooster of IObit.

 

And try this.

 

Go to steam -> Games -> rightclick CS:S -> Properties -> Set launch option -> Past the following in to the line. "-w 640 -h 480 -refresh 60 -dxlevel 80 -nocrashdialog -dev"

Update your graphic card.

And also update your DirectX version with the link enoskype gave a reply before.

 

http://www.nvidia.co.uk/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-uk

Go to this link and select the right options.

Then download it and install it.

I mean updating your graphic card, not buying other one.

There are 2 options, you can choose and select your graphic card details or it can do it for you. If you hesitate, then do option 2 like in the attachment.

Also.

 

Try using the turboboost function of Advanced System Care (as the new version of Gamebooster has a bug), also the SmartRam utility in Advanced System Care. Upgrade your memory as it costs less than the games you are trying to run and is very simple to do.

 

 

 

EDIT:The bug in GB is not a bug for everybody.
