Windows 7 random slowdown...
Hi, I am new to this forum, and I basically joined so I could maybe get some help with a big issue I am having. My computer runs windows 7 great, but very randomly my computer will slow down incredibly, almost totally unresponsive and I have to shut it off. When I reboot, it takes forever to get to the login screen. When I finally do get to log in, it takes about 10 minutes to get to the desktop. When the desktop finally loads up, it is not only still going rediculously slow, but it has reverted to a classic theme, with no sound options. It has done this about 3 times now, and I have figured out how to fix it at least temporarily by doing a system restore to the last update, reinstall the update and restart, this usually brings it back to normal. I know this has to be a windows 7 issue because I used to have Vista, with no problems at all. And my computer is definatly fast enough to handle windows 7, as nothing is lower than 5.9 in my system score. I haven't been able to find this issue anywhere on the internet, so if someone could help me, that would be fantastic! :)
P.S. I am using 64 bit, don't know if that matters.
