Ok guys, i finally got my new pc today, everything installed fine, way better then my old pc..

but i'm wondering, every now and then while i am doing 2 things at once, like using bit comet and ares, etc, my pc starts to lock up, and everything loads very slow, it wouldnt even turn off. any ideas?

also, i was getting pop ups saying some crap like urgent, windows registry(sp) is corrupted, go to this site right now and fix it, blah blah, it was a site like winregfix.com or some crap.

so stupid me did it, it scans, finds errors, but when i click fix it says register! so i uninstalled them.

any way to fix this? free cleaner programs maybe?

i installed all the drivers right (took a while, lol)

if it helps.


asus a8n-vm s939 mobo
amd athlon 64 3500+ 2.2ghz
1 gig ram ddr400 pc3200
250gig maxtor HD 7200rpm, 16mb cache
nvidia geforce 7 7600gs asus 256mb pci-e



help? please?

Do you have anything important on your computer? If I were you I'd just back up the stuff I need and reformat the HDD and put in a fresh install of winXP.

CrapCleaner is a good, free cleaner.

Go here to get it. It cleans out the registry, mainly, and does a bit other stuff.
