Defrag slowed my computer
Hi Guys
I just recently ran a defrag of my computer, straight after that it started running very slowly. I attributed this to malware and proceeeded to remove most (if not all) with malwarebytes anti-malware (free version) and the avast! boot time scan.
However, my computer still runs very slowly, and heats up quickly if i use high graphics programs.
What could be causing this, and what can i do to fix it?
Thanks in advance
