PC hangs after a while, different each time

[intentional_22]

Please help, not sure if this is an issue with a windows update, malware, trojan, etc, but my PC has been sluggish to start up and seems ok for a while, but ultimately always ends up hanging and the 'working' light on my box blinks in a very slow intermitten pattern. Posting logs and attachments as per the instructions...any direction or help would be a lifesaver...thanks!

Hello intentional_22 :),

We need to disable Spybot S&D's Teatimer real-time protection temporarily as it will interfere with the fix.

First step:

Right click the Spybot icon that looks like a blue/white calendar with a padlock symbol in the System Tray (lower right corner where the clock is situated).
For version 1.6, the steps are similar to either one of the below.
If you have version 1.5, click once on Resident Protection, then right click the Spybot icon again and make sure Resident Protection is now unchecked (unticked). The Spybot icon should now be colorless.
If you have Version 1.4, click on Exit Spybot S&D Resident.
Second step, for either version:

Open Spybot S&D.
Click Mode, choose Advanced Mode.
Go to the bottom of the vertical panel on the left, click Tools.
Then, also in left panel, click on Resident that shows a red/white shield.
If your firewall raises a question, say OK.
In the Resident protection status frame, uncheck the box labeled Resident "Tea-Timer"(Protection of over-all system settings) active.
OK any prompts.
Exit Spybot S&D and reboot your machine for the changes to take effect.
Remember to enable it when we are done.

Hello intentional_22 :),

Chkdsk in elevated command prompt

Go to Start, then type cmd in the search box.
You will see a cmd listed in the search result. Right click on it and select Run as administrator.
A command prompt window will appear. Please type chkdsk c: |find /v "percent" >> "%userprofile%\desktop\checkhd.txt", then press Enter.
Wait until the command finish and a new command line appear.
Close the command prompt and post the contents of checkhd.txt, found on your desktop.

--------------------

Do an online scan with ESET Online Scanner.
Please be patient as scanning will take quite some time. If you have problem running the scan, you might want to disable any real time protection that you have.

Click here (http://www.eset.com/onlinescan/) to go to ESET Online Scanner page.
Click on Run ESET Online Scanner. A new window will open.
For FireFox user, you will need to download and install esetsmartinstaller_enu.exe. Click on it and save the file to a convenient location. Double click on it to install and a new window will open.
After reading through the Terms of Use, check YES, I accept the Terms of Use and click Start to begin scan.
You will be prompted to install an ActiveX Control from ESET. Please install.
At the Computer scan settings section, uncheck (untick) Remove found threats. <-- Important, do not remove anything yet.
Then, check Scan archives.
Now, click on Advanced settings and make sure all these are checked:
Scan for potentially unwanted applications
Scan for potentially unsafe applications
Enable Anti-Stealth technology
Click on Scan to proceed.
When done, the scan result will be shown. Look for C:\Program Files\ESET\ESET Online Scanner\log.txt and open the file.
Post the contents in your reply.

If the contents of log.txt do not reflect what is shown in the result window, click on List of found threats, then Export to text file..., save a file and post that instead.

Please post back:
1. chkdsk result

Hello intentional_22 :),

I usually close the topic after 3 days without any reply, and it has already been 2 days since my last post. Do you still need help? Any problems following my instructions? Need more time?

If I do not get any response within the next 24 hours, this topic will be closed.

[intentional_22]

I have had problems getting the ESET Scan to complete as my PC locks up (per the original issue) as the ESET scan runs. I will past the Chkdsk log that also seems like it was unable to complete (pasted below) and continue to try to get the ESET scan to complete. The length of time it takes before my PC crashes is now longer (a good thing) but when it sits physically idol (while running the scan) it ends up eventually locking up in 'think' mode.

If I can get the ESET Scan to complete I wll post the results tongiht. If I cannot I will post a message.

Again, sorry for the delay.

Hello intentional_22 :),

Please attempt fixing with Chkdsk first before trying ESET again. If you have already obtained the ESET scan result, please post them and continue the Chkdsk step anyway.

--------------------

Repair your hard disk with Chkdsk in elevated command prompt

Go to Start, then type cmd in the search box.
You will see a cmd listed in the search result. Right click on it and select Run as administrator.
A command prompt window will appear. Please type chkdsk c: /f, then press Enter.
You will be prompted to schedule the scan on the next reboot, type Y and press Enter.
Close the command prompt, reboot your computer and Chkdsk will perform the repair tasks accordingly.

You may need to perform Chkdsk more than one time to solve all problems detected.

--------------------

Please perform a memtest and let me know the results.

Hello intentional_22 :),

You need to run Chkdsk as:
chkdsk c: /f

It appears the /f switch is missing.

[intentional_22]

Ok, so I have run the chkdsk with the f switch a couple of times, and it runs on a reboot. While it runs, I noticed it keeps mentioning 44 reparsed files (doesnt change after each subsequent reboot) and addresses a dll file but without a log I don't know what to post. Apologies for being dos command naive...but should I be inserting the /f switch into the original command you had directed me to use in order to get a .txt log file to post?

Also, the memory diagnostic tool links you provided sent me to pages where, once clicking on the link to the tool download...received 404 messages.

Assuming those links were old, and because I am on Vista, there is a Memory Diagnostic Tool in the Control Panel under Admin tools...or I can access by typing 'Memory' into the Start Menu Search box...I will wait on your direction before doing anything there...but I will continue to run chkdsk to hopefully fix any issues until I hear back and will stay up late to hopefully hear back from you and wrap this up. You have been more than patient and generous with your time and expertise!

[intentional_22]

Ok, so the message I kept receiving during stage 2 of 3 was that ChkDsk was deleting index entry slwga.dll in index $I30 in file 304555...then it says it recovered 1 lost file...orphaned file slwga.dll...then goes on to verify security descriptors and seems to complete ok. anything after that message appears too quickly for me to capture before going to the windows login screen.

I will run Memory diagnostic tool upon your cue.

note: I have Windows updates waiting to install but have not done so, so as to not muddle your help. Pls advise if I should do otherwise.

Again, thank you for all of your help!

[Jack&Jill]

Hello intentional_22 :),

You are most welcome.

You can use the following for the memory test:

How to use the Vista Windows Memory Diagnostics Tool (http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/using-vista-windows-memory-diagnostics-tool/).

Windows update will need to wait until we are done.

[intentional_22]

Ran the memory diagnostic test, it ran and completed (the standard or normal version of the test).

PC is now struggling to start up and seems bogged down again...

[Jack&Jill]

Hello intentional_22 :),

So far, we are not seeing much from the scans or logs. It is in my opinion that very likely it could be either Windows experienced some sort of corruption or there is some hardware issue. I suggest that you create backups of your data if you haven't yet, then get help from someone who can sit directly in front of the computer.

Help through online forums are somewhat limited in that aspect and I am not seeing any malware so far.

[Jack&Jill]

As we reach a point where we could not proceed further and you need to seek help from alternative sources, this topic is now closed.

We are glad to be of help up to this point. If you are satisfied with our assistance and wish to donate to help with the costs of this volunteer site, please read :
