Potentially Malware

Hello!

My desktop computer runs on Windows 7 Home Premium. About two weeks ago it had failed to boot up so I ran a start up repair and ended up having to do a restore point on it. I didn't think much of it because my laptop, which also runs Windows 7, had the same issue, so I thought it was a glitch with the newest update.

However, my desktop continued to have boot up errors for a couple more days and then ran fine. I was away from the house for about a week and came back to find it in an infinite repair loop. During these failed repairs, the display on my monitor would randomly disconnect. The monitor would say to check the cable and then would go black, my desktop would still be running. I checked the wires and the slots and they all look fine. When this happened, I would hear three beeps from the desktop if I let it keep running.

I got the boot up repaired and thought that was the end of it until my computer began to freeze. My mouse would still be responsive but nothing on the screen would do anything. This seemed to happen quicker when connected to the internet, but I discovered it was still doing it when I attempting to finish these scans. The display disconnecting began happening again randomly as well, but not nearly as often as during the boot up repair. I could only complete most of the scans in safe mode, but even safe mode froze up sometimes.

I believe this is a hardware issue or some other software issue, but I would like malware to be ruled out of it anyways. Thank you for any insight and help!

 

Okay, thank you friend! I'll be sure to do that.
