reseated RAM as suggested and running memtest, but it has been running for 13 hours now as was expecting it to stop when it had completed. Is it possibly still running i.e. should stop when it is finished? Screen says Pass 100% test 64% Test #8. No errors so far.

You have to stop it manually. The test will run indefinitely otherwise.
If you have no errors in 12 passes you are quite done! The memory tests out OK.

Bonjour! Not a good day.
Bonjour is an Apple products program that is notorious for slowing down Windows computers. It is usually installed with iTunes or iPod apps. It is not so much in the running of the program(s) but in the uninstall or update of them that the problems begin.
I recently worked on an XP desktop that was running so painfully slow that it made you cry. Only after deleting everything iTunes and iPod related file and folder, methodically going through the registry and cleaning up every i-what entry, and then running CCleaner was I able to get the thing running near normal again.
While this is but one possible issue, it stands out because it is so commonly seen in threads regarding "my computer is running slow". It would be worth looking into.

If you need it I would not uninstall it - other than to try and do a re-installation of the i-stuff in an attempt to get it all to play nice with Windows.
You might check with The Others in your household to see if they installed new Apple progs, or uninstalled any, to see if you can figure out what the state of those installations is. On the XP computer I mentioned, i-Stuff had been improperly removed and that is when the problems started.
I suggest you do a web search for "Bonjour Service Windows Slow" and see what you can learn. I am not an Apple guy, so my experience with these progs is quite limited. I just shared my story as a possible parallel path for you to check out.
There are other issues in the Error Logs and one of these may trigger a response from someone else. So be patient and see what some other posters come up with before you chase this one idea!

I see some suggestions that are leading the OP astray, so hopefully we can get to the heart of the issue. First, a weak pwer supply wouldn't cause slow downs....you have shutdowns instead. Second, you tested the memory, which is good, but have you run the manufacturer's diag tool on the hard drive? A failing hard drive could result in sluggishness, and would still be present after a fresh install. I see IAstor listed above...that's your drive controller driver. YOu could have an issue with the drive.
