Computer Problem

[Adam Cruge]

I am using Windows XP SP3 on my desktop computer. It has good configuration. 250 HD Intel Core 2 Duo MB and 2 GD DDR2 RAM. It used to run very fast and perfectly as well.
But for the last few weeks it started to work unexpectadly. Sounds skipping, startup too slow, and getting hanged frequently.
So I thought it might be a virus issue. And did scan my computer with my BD Total Security 2010 and found no virus. Then decided to format the computer and installed nothing except Avast antivirus.
Two days later same problem started. Avast boot scan showed no warning at all. I don't know what is happening. When my previous harddisk was installed same problem occured and now it has been a few months when I installed a new hard disk.
My Hijackthis log as follows. Please suggest me how to fix my computer.

First, Download ESET Onine Scanner *download.eset.com/special/eos/esetsmartinstaller_enu.exe

And Malware Bites Anti-Malware from Here

And Run a full system scan. post the logs here.

I dont know HJT analysing anyway.
Although a quick review says there is no problem[Completely Personal, i am not even a HJT Trainee]. Wait for a pro to come.

 

[celldweller1591]

HJT log looks fine to me
Try a better AV program like Kasper or Nod32.

 

[azzu]

the HjT looks fine and was the Avst latest ver na ?
i think that may be also due to heat up ..i experienced some of the problems u stated due to over heating...
i suggest u cleaning the cabinet and apply thermal paste on Proccy
hope it helps
