Hello,
I just built a new computer about a month ago. Everything was working fine (computer was very fast, no BSOD, etc.) before I left for Christmas Break. When I returned about 2 weeks later my computer decided it was going to run extremely slow! The computer was shut off during my 2 week vacation. When I open nVidia monitor it shows the Hard Drive at 100% like its doing something (this will occasionally return to normal for a sec or two before going back up to 100%). The Memory, CPU usage is normal. I did overclock my computer and I thought that may be why it was running slow so I changed it back to the default values and it still ran slow. Does anyone know what is going on?!? I think it has to do with the HDD reading/writing constantly but I may be wrong.
Comp. Specs
Q6600 @ 2.4 (Zalman 9500)
eVGA 680i A1
eVGA 8800 GT SLI
4GB Crucial Ballistix (800)
Windows Vista 64-bit Home Premium (OEM)
Thanks for the help in advance!
