What does this mean for my computer?

“cold cocked”
What does that mean?

Need more info to go on, like what your setup is, make, other symptoms etc…
You can rule out most hardware issues by running a Linux live disc. Aside from that I think you probably need to start over and low-level format the drive then re-install your OS.

I hit the physical power off button while it was technically running.
Window 10.
It’s just lagging and dogging really bad. I’ll type something and it takes several seconds for the type to catch up.

Hit CNTL-ALT-DEL and bring up the task manager, see what process is dragging you down.

Here’s a link for common causes of slowness of a computer.

Thanks. I will get back onit tomorrow.
The only thing task manager showed were two anti virus programs, Weather bug and Firefox. I closed down every thing except Firefox.

Run malwarebytes tomorrow !

Stay off those “you know” websites. ;>)

Malwarebytes was one of the programs! I’ve run it 3 times. Also Avast, which was the other other program.

I think your hard drive is taking a crash dive.

I am afraid so too…..

Ah Willie…no more porn??!

No food porn

No automobile porn

No RV porn

That’s it ! ! !

NO RV PORN???? My life is ova.

What I want to know is how Willie even knows I peruse RV porn. Hmmmm?

The CIA knows a lot.

Any chance your system just did a Windows update??? Mine keeps popping up saying I need to do mine, so I’m assuming that you either need to do one or just did one.

Finally took it in. Turns out I had 2 or 3 antivirus programs installed and they were fighting. Tech says they each viewed the other as a virus and were at war.
This is something I did not know, but now I do. Thought I’d let you know too, in case you didn’t.
