    I already did a full scan using Malwarebytes,Avast(Boot-scan),Spybot and i am not picking anything so probably its not a virus although i am not taking away the possibility.

    I have frequent computer freezing during the first few minutes after startup and i think its a little normal since some program are just starting up.

    This is how it looks like during the firs few minutes http://i48.tinypic.com/nehi86.jpg



    The PF is over 2GB and the CPU usage always more than 50% before and after the start up.

    I uploaded my PC specs using Speccy.

    This are my other conclusion.

    1. Hard disk

    I have a very old HDD(probably more than 6 years), sometimes im hearing a clicking sound ( click of death ) on it but not frequently. When i am viewing a folder that contains a lot of file ex. my movie file, drive C: it's taking a little bit long to respond. (i am seeing the flash light animation for seconds). they say that a failing HDD will give me bad sectors but after using chkdsk im not getting anything, and base on speccy it's status is ok.

    2. Overheating

    But i just opened my PC. its temperature is more than 45 degree (i dont know the normal values)

    +It's summer

    3. Memory (RAM) Problem

    Or this is just a memory problem, i have a 2GB ram and on BIOS i set the DVMT to maximum and the shared memory to Auto. (I am not sure about the optimum settings for this) and sometimes i am getting "Memory module cannot be read errors" but it was fixed after removing Iobit Advance system care.

    4. Hardware or Software related

    I am not sure about this, I already posted my PC details using speccy i hope someone could check if there is something wrong there.

    Thanks in advance.

    try disabling startup programs through msconfig. The temperature is normal not too high.
