Hello, so up until recently my computer worked perfectly fine, monday however i noticed one of my games, Total War: Rome II, started up horrifically slow, i thought it was just related to that game at first, then i tried other games, they also loaded very slow, i've also been noting a rather severe general system slowdown, before the login screen i also get a black screen WITH mouse cursor... and when i shut down i get a quick flash of a black screen as well, also, logging in takes longer than usual, i booted in Safe mode, and it went better but i still got the black screen.
My system configuration
CPU: AMD Phenom II 965 BE 3.4 GHz,
GPU: XFX Radeon HD 7850 1 gb
RAM: 8 gb Corsair Vengeance
MOBO: Gigabyte 990FXA UD3 AM3+
PSU: Seasonic m1211 650 watt bronze 80+.
I already defragmented, deleted almost all temp files, disabled internet on start-up, safe mode, installed all updates for windows update, video and audio drivers completely up to date.
The thing that comes to mind is either an error within windows itself, Malicious Software (i did a scan, removed all) but its results could still be there, and HDD/RAM failure. Thanks for your help!
