I swear this last year,specifically in the last few months, I have been having THE worst time with computers problems. First my video card went out earlier this year and now something new has reared its ugly head this morning.
Last night, after getting home from work I decided to uninstall some long unused programs and getting rid of files from my computer in order to make way for the installation of the upcoming Warhammer MMO as well as Wrath of the Lich King (I like WoW, so sue me). After getting all the programs and files I wanted off, I disk scanned the computer and then once that was complete left to defrag while I went to bed as at this point it was last 4 in the morning EST.
I woke up this morning and went check on the computer and to my surprise the screen had lines going up and down the entirety of the monitor, the computer was running really slow
slow to the point I would describe it as in slow motion. Every window I opened up would slowly open (as if fading in) and then when closed they slowly closed (as if fading out) …and the mouse cursor was running SO slow that when you moved it the cursor itself disappeared and the only indication you would have that it actually was moving was a long trail that began to disappear only after the cursor stopped movement.
Anyone got any suggestions what THIS could be
.I have my thoughts as to what it could be
but I want to get some opinions from people whom helped me with my video card before.
