w7 unusable after install
Hi Im new here and Ive got a problem.
I upgraded my main computer from vista 64 to w7 64 few days ago. I did perfect clean install everything went like in the guide given in these forums, although it was kinda slow process like 1-2 hours. I have clean installed w7 few times after, it always installs fine but slowish.
The problem:
Starting the computer and entering the desktop takes about 10 minutes. When on desktop clicking anything causes freezing for 100s of seconds (!!!), finally it does my command though. But I cant open any program, folder or internet because it will just lag and say "not responding". I can do pretty much nothing. When ctrl+alt+del I get screen saying: "Failure to display security and shut down options. The logon process was unable to display security and logon options when CTRL+ALT+DEL was pressed. If the operation system doesnt respond press ESC or restart the computer by using the power switch." So Im stuck at step 19. because its impossible to install drivers and stuff.
It is like the processor would run 99,9-100% all the time. It is unusable. Theres no outer devices connected except P/S2 keyboard. It doesnt make a difference whether internet is plugged or not. I gave it time over because I thought it was maybe loading something, but no difference there in the morning. After many restarts the problem still occurs. Vista ran perfectly before btw, cant be a hardware problem.(?) Got Packard Bell iPOWER x2.0= i7, nVidia GT230, 8Mb DDR3 or something like that.
Any helpful suggestions are appreciated Im really outta clue here. Gosh I just payed +100 euros for making my computer from fully functional to completely unusable.
