Title: not a trojan, just power-saver mode, choking my cpu
Post by: DIMENTIO1 on December 16, 2008, 08:57:46 AM
will a system restore fix it? and if it doesnt, will a factory restore work? btw, norton 2009 picked it up and i rly do have a trojan coz Dolphin 1.349 runs slow

EDIT: never mind, i had power saver mode enabled, so it slowed everything down. i just disabled it and everything is working as it should, nice and fast.

And lemme guess, Norton won't fix it.
Download Ad-Aware, Avast! (I know it's ugly, deal with it), and Spybot S&D.
Run them.

LOL nvm, i had my laptop on Power Saver mode, so my CPU was @ limited speed. :D now everything works fast again. i was convinced it was a trojan at first coz i scanned it last night and i found one (from a PC game .rar file) but i guess it was a fake.

It's the farthest thing from ugly, I dunno what you're talking about.

Why would your computer be on power saver mode in the first place?
