New HD and windows installation
Over the past couple days I’ve noticed that when I log into my machine at home, svchost will peg the cpu at 100% nonstop. The weird thing was, I noticed this right after I installed Max. I uninstalled it but the problem persisted, interestingly it only happened after I would stop the “sqlbrowser” windows service, wtf?
So, I did some googling, ran a virus check, nothing really came up, so I’m now doing the best alternative. I’m buying a new hard drive and installing windows. It’s gotten to the point where it’s not worth it to try and diagnose and fix problems when you can buy an 80 gig hard drive for $60 bucks. Since my current install isn’t totally hosed (the problem doesn’t happen all the time), I can install my new hard drive and get windows loaded and setup just right before I blow away my current drive.
I like starting fresh anyways, and this time, I’m going to setup our user accounts to not be administrators, I figure it can’t hurt, except for the growing pains of not being able to take certain actions anymore.
As I do some research on installing windows on a second drive, I came across this “tutorial” of sorts, and laughed my ass off
