Rep Power: 2 | There many Generic Host Process running in Windows - 3 for System 6 for Local User Group 2 for Network Virus may be cause but I feel it to be a good excuse. Any problems people have with their computer they blame on virus but that may not be the real issue. The problem you are having may be due to improperly installed , incompatible or missing system drivers. Please open your Device manager.[Right click My Computer on Desktop and go to Manage. Click Device Manager in WMC[Windows Management Console]. See whether there are any yellow question mark or exclamation mark beside any system devices. Install proper device drivers , update older drivers. I think this will workout the issue. |

Rep Power: 1 | Solution1: -------------- The best thing to know for sure is to just format your C:\ drive the one with the Windows Installation. This way "if it was a system error/bug" will be clean. Solution2: -------------- But "if it was a virus" first get a good security solution, scan your PC for infections, remove them. If still the problem persists then go for solution1 remember to use antivirus, dont think you won't browse sites which are risky so you dont get a virus, if u are connected to the internet that is enough for u to get infected. |
