So the thing is my computer is jacked up. It was my own build and ever since it has had the os installed it has been doing stupid weird things. I have waited untill now to say anything about it because it was just little things. but now im tired of reinstalling things unable to install things and even not having administrartor rights even though i am the only administrator.
Just a few programs i have had to reinstall a lot of times: http://gyazo.com/9f9397f17fb32d94d8f4708363e431f4
Also I have tried many times to install google chrome but to no avail has it worked.
And everytime i have started up my computer it has lots of black dialog boxes come up.
No viruses im sure i have scanned manny times.
Any help is appreciated! PLEASE AND THANKS!!!!!
BTW the OS is windows 7 home premium.

heirthos, I know you filled out some system specs, but could you do it with more detail please. It helps us to help you. If you would like to know what we want, at the bottom left of this post, click my system specs and see mine. If you need assistance this will help http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/180324-system-info-see-your-system-specs.html.

Did you install the operating system and did you download the drivers from Asus web site and install the motherboard drivers? Did you run all of the Windows updates?

For starters, click the start button, in the search box type cmd, in the entry that appears, right click it and select run as administrator and give permission. In the black box that appears, copy and paste this sfc /scannow That is a system file checker and will check and attempt to repair any corrupted or missing system files. If it finds errors, reboot and run it again. It may take up to 3 times to fix all errors if it can.

Also, please go to this site Hard Drive Diagnostics Tools and Utilities (Storage) - TACKtech Corp. and download the diagnostic program from the manufacturer of your hard drive and run both the short test and the long test.

also when i said black dialog boxes i meant this: Every time I start up my computer I get this command prompt telling me this: 8b824d270162f3626cb367b0d218ac46.png
UPDATE: Gyazo - d2608056f21ee8770da2f656e38ff465.png
You are mining Bitcoins, all errors shown in these screenshots are from the CGMiner program you are using.

Uninstall it and these error messages stop.

Kari
What are bitcoins and bitcoin miners?
Let's put it this way: If you do not know what Bitcoins are and if this is your computer, I would wipe the hard disks as soon as possible and reinstall Windows.

The command prompt dialogs, messages I quoted in my previous post are typical CGMiner dialogs. They simply tell how the mining is going, in your case for instance that when trying to send mined Bitcoins, the receiving end does not answer but CGMiner has found another network node and swaps to that, and so on.

I repeat: if all this is unfamiliar to you, someone else is using your PC over network. Wipe and reinstall.

Kari noticed what I did not. That is the program running those screens that has to be installed on your computer. At the top of the screen, notice it says cgminer version 2.8.5.

Oh.... So uh basicaly i have to delete everything on my pc?completely and then reinstall all the drivers again?also when i first installed the OS it kept telling me i had to activate it. Now this would have been fine since i had the product code and stuff except everytime i put it in it said it was not real. Which was a lie because i had bout it new directly from amazon. Anyway I called microsoft and they got it all figured out. Will i have to go through that process again? and also i know waht wipeing the hard drive means but uh... what would that involve. And yes i seriously have no clue what bitcoins are so yeah i guess thats bad

Also even when I first installed the OS it was still giving me crap about not being the admin even though I was. Will I have to deal with that still after wiping the hard drive or will that go away?

Of course not. It is your PC, your Windows, I have no right to tell you to wipe the HDD empty and start from beginning.

It is your decision, of course. You alone can decide if you let people you do not know to use your computer without your permission in illegal activities(*).

Please do exactly as you wish. I only recommended something, told you what I would do if it was my computer. But really, I'm in no position to order you to reinstall. It's a free world.

If you decide do the one and only intelligent thing, start as fellow member Golden told:

You have to start from the very beginning.

Use this to completely wipe the drive, then reinstall Windows from scratch.

(*) = Before some "Free Internet" or Tor or whatever activist comments this, of course I know Bitcoin mining is not illegal when done on your own PC or with PC owner's permission. Done like this, on another owner's PC without the owner's acknowledgement it becomes illegal.
