At start up, PC has gotten slow. Also has audible noises ( sounds like morse code) coming from hard drive (not through speakers). Never had sounds before. Also noticed PC became slow. In the process of checking for viruses and malware. Also ran system restore to a few days prior but it didn't seem to help.
This is what I have; Avast Commodo Threatfire ( had this but it didn't want to work right the other the day so it got ousted. I only ran it occasionally) SpywareBlaster Malware-bytes ( only run on occasion to double-check) Working on the full checks to the system. Will let you know results. |
