Windows 7 running very slow, loss of internet, firewall down.
I am having a nightmare with my windows 7 64 bit home edition. It is running extremely slowly. I have lost the internet connection and the windows firewall has turned off and cannot be turned back on. Whenever I boot up i get the message "failed to connect to a windows server" The event viewer log is also unavailible.
I have established that my internet is working on other machines. I have also attempted to reset winsock in safe mood. However this has not worked.
I've had the system for about 9 months with no major problems. I have McAfee and have run windows defender and adaware so I am pretty sure it's not malware. I really need some assistance here. Thanks
