weird sound difficulties

someone used AIM invader on me

(http://deathring.us/aim/downloads/aiminvader9faq/)

and it crashed my AIM, then i was listening to music for about 10 minutes when my sound mysteriously stopped. i checked and the song was still playing, so i checked a video file and the wouldnt play audio either. i went through the troubleshooter on XP, including all sorts of checks to see whether or not my sound was muted, or if it was turned up high enough, i check that my speakers were plugged in, everything seemed like it should be working. i restarted, still have the problem, then i plugged in my headphones to see if it was a problem with the speakers, i didnt hear anything over the headphones either. i ran ad-aware and that wouldnt let me update the definition files until after i ran it, cleared out some crap frmo there, then ran it again. still no luck with the speakers, i really cant figure this out. maybe its some type of virus? please help, i have a hijackthis log file too in case you want to see that. please help me out here, i cannot live in silence!

======
update: i found out that if i check the mute all button, then uncheck it, the sound will usually be restored. sometimes i have to do it a few times. i ran the AIMfix program and it didnt find any AIM viruses. i have attached a HijackThis log file for you to review. thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

 

ok and now the mouse and keyboard are lagging really bad, i cant even see this text until like 10 seconds after i write it

 

turns out my keyboard and mouse were lagging because SOMETHING was taking up 99% of my CPU usage...

 

okay, usually i have i think it was either 19 or 24 processes running, now i have 34 for some reason. something really weird is going on here and i need help.

wow its been 5 days and no one has even TRIED to help me. are you guys major geeks or major assholes? i can't tell anymore

 

I've done everything in the stickies and no responce here either. Don't know whats up..

 

Morning subnormal1,

Thats not a very nice way to start the morning. Chas gave you instructions and asked a couple of questions approx. 24hrs after your original post. With the amount of people he helps on here thats not very long to wait. Everyone that helps on here does it on their on time....they don't get paid. Answer his questions and perform the instructions given and he MIGHT still help you.
Have a nice day.

Morning to you also sea23usa,
Its only been approx. 6hrs since you posted. What kind of response time are you looking for? Maybe you should bring your problems to someone you can PAY...and see how good of a response you get then. But looking at your old threads I should expect that kind of reply. Jeez some people just don't get it

look im sorry, i was acting like an asshole, im just very very frustrated with this ****ing computer. i have a gig of ram, a pentium 4 2.53 GHz, 100g gi hard drive, 128 meg radeon 9000 AGP, and i cant even type into this little box without my letters showing up on the screen 30 seconds after i have hit the button. i've done everything i can think of to try and fix this, i have reinstalled my sound driver, no help, ran symantec antiviurs, which found a lot of shit, and then deleted all that. im really lost here, and im ready to just smash everything in my house with a hammer. im sure you have all felt this way before as well. i WOULD follow the instructions you gavce me, butright now i dont want to spend 15 minutes scrolling the page down (my computer is hanging really badly, it only works normally for about the first 3 minutes after i reboot, then it starts hanging up, maybe its an issue with the RAM not dumping properly? i really dont know but im getting very angry)

please still try to help me.

 

subnormal1,

Sorry to chime in, but you say you don't want to spend "dont want to spend 15 minutes scrolling the page down" but you want Chaslang to spend time helping you solve your problems.

I suggest you take the time to follow the instructions -YOU need to put in the effort also.

Chaslang and others on this board have spend more hours than you can count in helping others fix their problems. Very rarely do they even get a thank you.

Please step back and realize that you need to spend the time to find your problems and allow Chaslang and others to help you.

Just my $.02

ok. i did allt he steps in your list. here is the new log file:

Edit by chaslang: Inline log attached

also, i got very fed up with this, i downloaded madboot (www.madboot.com) and tried to format the hard drive, but it says i have insufficient memory. i dont understand this because i have a gig of ram. maybe this is my problem? could this be why everything is slowing down and turning into a piece of shit? what about the speakers then? maybe the sound is just lagging behind? when i right click my computer and go to properties, it shows a gig of ram.

 

i dont think i mentioned this before but my CPU usage keeps going up to 100%, im pretty sure this is the cause of the problem, but i dont know what is causing the CPU usage to go up so much, im not doing anything and it just happens.

 

i ran the online tests, some type of java thing popped up, i went and watched a 3 hour movie (the aviator), when i came back it was still loading so i skipped that part. i reformatted the hard drive. i would like to try this memory tester, where can i get one?
