  1. I would like to add an apology if I came off arrogant in my previous post. If you know people with a high IQ they usually tend to come off a little harsh in their wording. I know i sounded some what rude but all I wanted to do is make my point. You were expressing what you thought was my issue but I did take it a little wrong. I still have no issues now with anything like I was having. I truly and utterly hate having to wipe/install more than most do (mainly the massive amount of time required to "let" windows update) Not to mention the huge amount of updates windows did (over 100) and the la
  2. You are right Pete, it sounds as if the case side is to close the the fan to me. Before upgrading to water cooling I had an aftermarket cooler for my cpu that was too close to the case side. It was a slower speed fan so I did not experience noise as the OP is hearing but I noticed about a 9C degree difference with out the case side on. 2 options i see with this issue 1 mod the case side by adding a additional hole above the fan, or get a new case that will allow more airflow. Or go with a cooler that has a side flow fan not a top flow fan. Also Pete it is better to have more exhaust fans than
  3. After a total wipe and reinstall everything is running slick as oil on glass. No missing keystrokes, no crashes or freezes etc. (my old dvd drive is still dead as a door-knob but it is a hardware issue not software related) I am not a NOOB to overclocking, I have overclocked every cpu I have ran that allowed it since my P2 800 mhz that I ran @ 1 ghz with no issues. Since I am OCed in bios I am still running the same cpu, north-bridge and memory speeds. I have a custom built water cooling solution so heat issues are not a problem and under load I do not even exceed 30C with 100%x4 usage (with a
  4. Well apparently this virus damages windows irrecoverably. (per panda and other sources it is a damaging virus) It is so bad that my Tb HD I use as a back up drive (that has been sitting on my desk disconnected since before this virus issue) is reading as the drive I use to store games and downloads on which is named something else, and the SATA cable is disconnected from,and the backup is reading as the disconnected drive. Not to mention the program failures I have been having where I open a program and it never opens a window, even though it is open in task manager. After removing it my pc
  5. Ran some anti-rootkits they only turned up the sysrestore points which have been flushed
  6. Panda showed it as W32/Xor-encoded.A (which i think I got from an infected ad that auto opened an infected pdf file, and why I now run adblock for firefox) As for the DVD already tried the normal lens cleaner. Disassembled it and cleaned all the lenses too but wont read any disks, this was an issue with this drive model apparently (LG GSA-H55N). It will accept a firmware update so the "brain" is still working but the read/write function seems dead, it also shows up in bios and windows but neither xp or 7 will read any disk. When I start up the pc if I have the drive apart I can see the laser t
  7. I tried another AV (Panda) and it found a trojan that everything else could not. It had even infected trendmico's house call downloaded definitions. Now all I get is the normal every now and then few millisecond delay (and no beeps) vs keys not registering at all which is most likely just something using the cpu heavily. As for the dvd drive guess I will take apart the laser assembly and clean the 2 lenses. I doubt that is the issue though, according to the reviews on newegg that model had alot of issues with doa or dying quickly. The cd burner I have had for 6-7 years with no issues, 1st tim
  8. I am having a strange issue even Microsoft can not answer with my keyboard. I have used 2 keyboards in testing and the issue persists. On occasions )fairly random) I am typing and I am not a super fast typist once in a while my keyboard stops responding for about 3-10 seconds. I type and nothing appears, if I have my headphones on I hear a beep and my keyboard responds, I have ran every free antivirus scan available and even changed to panda AV (which detected and removed a trojan) but the issue still persists. I have an older logitech keyboard that is a ps2 connection and have tried a microso
