well my dad took it to work today and its fixed, we did a virus scan and managed to figure out all the problems with it, we've got Microsoft security essentials on it and its smooth, plus everything is up to date. I'm very glad my PC is OK and will hopefully continue to bring quality art to you all soon ounce again.

Put Spybot: Search&Destroy on it as well for adware/malware, and CCleaner will take out registry errors. You can even get Defraggler which is a comprehensive (not just standard Microsoft) defragmenter.
