Hello all,
I was messing around with my computer a little earlier today, playing some games and whatnot. I changed a couple settings so i went to restart the computer. When it loaded into windows I turned on CPU-Z and Speedfan. When they first opened I noticed they were only reading one core on my Core2 Duo E7400 (overclocked to 3.3ghz). After reading around the net, i restarted my computer to get into the BIOS. When it restarted, it hanged and restarted itself about twice, then went into the BIOS.
I went to the BIOS screen and an error popped up saying it was having start issues due to overclocking or volts, so i dropped my clock multiplyer from x10 to x9 and left the FSB at 333.
Anyways. When I tried to start into windows, i noticed it was going REALLY slow, then I hit the login screen. Logged in, and it was going REALLY slow yet again. Then it went into a black screen for about 3 minutes, and after that things finally started loading in, but if i even tried to open a program it would just take forever.
So I loaded into windows via safe mode and it seemed to work alright.
I am currently running systemrestore to see if that helps. But from the looks of it, it isn't working correctly still.
What could the problem be though?
Specs in my sig.
