I think my computer has it. My CPU was jumping all over the place when it was idling on the desktop. I tried to restore it, but the most recent restore point was only a few days prior. The CPU isn't as manic, but when I load Counter Strike Source I'm running at about 10 FPS, which is much lower than the 30 something I usually get, which seems to imply something is amiss. I have the Trend Micro security suite and am currently running Spybot Search and Destroy. If my computer is still unhappy, how can I go about reformatting my hard drive? I have the disk with the OS and whatnot, and have nothing important on my computer that I can't reinstall, so I figure its no biggie.

If you want to reformat use the OS install disc as the boot disc and go from there. During the install it will reformat.

Done and done. My computer shut itself down last night (presumably after it finished). I do not yet know if it has been cured. Serves my computer right for having unprotected sex with multiple partners.

I should tell you guys about my "safe sex theory" of bong maintenance. I'll post it in the herb thread...
