I am a computer tech myself, but for the life of me I cannot fix this machine. Here is what I have done so far. Let me know if you have any ideas
Machine is running extremely slow. I have run multiple Diagnostics on it and the CPU is running at about 10% of what it should be in Windows.
Here are the troubleshooting steps I have taken so far
Spyware - Ad-aware, Spybot, Trend Micro
Virus Scan - Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition, AVG Anti-Virus, Trend Micro
Registry - Checked hKey_Cur_usr ---> Run, Checked Hkey_Local_Mach --> Run
[b}Services[/b] - Removed/Set to manual any unnecessary services. It is possible I may need to disable another, but I doubt thats the problem. If you have a better understanding of Windows Services let me know and I Will send you a list
Check Device Manager - Uninstalled any devices with !!! on them. Saw a few I didn't know. Will also send a list if requested
Ran System File Checker - SFC /scannow
Replaced motherboard, CPU, RAM
I kinda don't know what else to do. I cannot run System Restore as I do not have the time to track down all my software. I have run a CPU benchmark from a Bootable CD and it show at the correct speed.
Please let me know if you have any ideas
