im able to use my laptop now (had to update a seller on ebay)

but it still slows down from time to time

its been doing this defragment registry thing, still anyalyzing it for the past 2 days :to: it hasnt moved since but ive read the bigger the hardive the longer it takes but like i said ive moved my files so im if this thing doesnt move in the next 24hours i might factory reset it tbh


defragment is the biggest waste of time ever

damn i fuked up

but i must say waiting did help me move more files

is their cons to factory resetting minus losing stuff ?

besides loosing files/time? no , make sure you do all the proper updates once you restart and remove all those unneeded programs , also install all the apps from page one so you protected from the go

:laff:i just got off the phone with some indian scammers saying they were from microsoft tech support and my computer was sending them virus alerts. they didnt know they called a pc gamer, so i decided to play around with them. i gave them the run around and then the dude told me to go to their site. it looked janky so i told them it was a struggle site and the dude got off the phone and put another guy on. i then told him this doesnt look legit, breh (i acutally said "breh")

then the dude told me to fukk myself with a thick indian accent. i almost died laughing

@midwesthiphop hey bro im having the same problem as this dude

do you know what the problem is

No matter the source / download / if i clear the cache etc. I download something and it tells me in one way or another the file is corrupt. Can't even update chrome. Even reformatted, nothing. Reformatted with a different harddrive same problem. I am also getting image / video artifacts.imgur: the simple image sharerimgur: the simple image sharer I assuming it has something to do with my graphics card? I have the intel 3000 hd inside a 2nd gen mobile i5 laptop. with a switchable nvidia geforce 550M. The laptop in question is the lenovo y470. any leads would be helpful. Sidenote bonus: sometimes if i download with IE/firefox the file would work but other times it wouldn't, never with chrome. DNS is fine to my knowledge
Sidenote: noticed my girlfriends computer is saying things are corrupt as well...i downloaded something via tether and it still gave me the corruption error so im a bit confused here. Cleared cache before download too btw. Sorry not sure if its the right board... please move if it's not!

Everytime you download a file it says corrupt? Does this include right clicking and saving a picture? Or just large music and movies files

mp3's are fine,

its just exe, rar, mp4 video that i cant get to work, and the download speed is fine but this is random, its also effects soundcloud and xvideos

flashshockwave and java are updated too

just put your hard-drive into a bucket of kerosene, and throw a match in

:troll:
