BleepingComputer.com: Computer runs super slow! Am i infected?

I was wondering if you could give me any suggestions on how to update my drivers. Windows update doesn't really do it. Also i just installed an internal card reader this morning. It worked breifly and then i got a error message, I think it said " USB device has exceeded the power limits of its hub port " or something to that nature. Now the device will not work at all. I am lost.

Didn't know if we were done, or your just super busy.

Sorry I missed this topic.

Right click on the C drive in Explorer and go Properties > Tools > Check Now (under Error Checking). Check both boxes then click "Start Now". A message will pop up saying that Error Checking will run after you restart the computer. Restart the computer and Error Checking will run automatically after the restart. After it’s finished it will restart into Windows automatically.

That is finished and it seems to be helping. Do you have any ideal how i can resolve my card reader problem?

First I want to have a look at the log from the chkdsk we just ran.

Go Start > Run and type "eventvwr.msc" (without the quotes). Click on Application and select the most recent winlogon entry. It should give the chkdsk log.

Post the log back here in your next reply.

What is the make and model number of your computer?

There is no make and model. I built the computer myself about 5 yrs ago. It is a gigabyte motherboard, celeron 2.9 processer, 2 gigabytes of ram.

Check your devices in Device Manager (Start > Run > type "devmgmt.msc" (without the quotes) and press Enter). Look for any "!", "?" or "X" symbols.

Also, exactly what problem are you having with your card reader?

There are no kind of errors at all in the device manager. I installed the device it worked for about five minutes. Then an error message came up and said " usb device has exceeded the power limits" or something close to that.

Can you try reinstalling it. And if you get an error message please copy the EXACT message and post it back here.
