I'm on a PC in the office (home office), I tried this monitor last night but I'll try it again. I've also unplugged all my PCI cards and tried onboard GFX and sound and still no luck! |
Best of luck. I've had a boot sector virus before and they can cause odd symptoms, usually the OS install will crash out or stall as the disk is checked or shortly thereafter.
The CPU utilisation does suggest that there is a driver or OS subsystem issue. Does the same thing happen in safe mode but not in safe mode
without networking for example? Booting in logging mode may reveal something but...so many options and It's often hard to really diagnose such things at a distance. I hope it's something simple that a recovery attempt will fix. Real time chat would be much better but I'm afraid I'm going to bed, hopefully HG can help you out.
