Hi,
My PC is running a lot smoother although I still have the keyboard problem, the PC randomly doesn’t respond to keystrokes at all or catches up after a minute or so, any ideas?
Thanks for helping out here, I’m not sure if we are finished here?
Hi Stee41, I’m Gus, let me have a look at whats occurred to date here and your logs. In the meantime have you rebooted your pc since the delayed keyboard issue arose, and can you see if there’s any network activity as there would be if Windows was updating? Also I’m in Aus so we have a bit of a time difference, but we will help you.
Hi Gus, jmarket has done a great job getting this PC running pretty smoothly.
Yeah the PC has been rebooted several times now, sorry but I can’t say if there was windows updates taking place at the time of the keyboard problem, I just never thought to check at the time. This used to happen every other day for weeks at a time then just clear itself for a few weeks, its okay at the minute I mentioned it incase there is a routine check and fix for this problem, it seems to happen randomly, I understand if this info is not helpful so a few pointers would be good for the future its just hard to check certain things at the time as I lose control of the keyboard when it occurs. Thanks, Stee
Hi again Stee, Jmarket has removed a deal of stuff from your pc and it looks fairly good. I notice you dont have a great deal of disk space left and there’s some programs I would ditch which should help a bit in terms of space and resources being used. I also see what appeared a problem with Browser reset, and would suggest you run it again for both Internet explorer and Chrome. This is important.
Download ResetBrowser to your desktop.
Now close all open browsers. All browsers MUST be closed during this operation!
Click on Reset Internet explorer and let the app run.
Close and reopen the app, as administrator again, then click Reset Chrome.
Then reboot your computer.
I would recommend removing the following programs using Geek uninstaller
[ol]
[li]AVG web tune up.. Use the force mode for this one[/li][li]Mozilla maintenance service[/li][li]Unless you use custom buttons or settings for your keyboard/mouse you don’t need Logitech set point. I have used Logitech stuff for years and never installed their bloated software. The keyboard and mouse will work fine without it.[/li][li]Unless you use 3D graphics definitely remove Nvidia 3D[/li][li]Remove Nvidia update[/li][/ol]
Here are the instructions for Geek Uninstaller, disregard the download section if you still have it.
Please go HERE and download Geek Uninstaller portable and save it to somewhere you can find later. Now use you favorite Unzip application to extract the zipped file from the download. This should create a new folder that contains a Geek.exe file which you can now double left click to open the program.
Optionally you can create a desktop shortcut by right clicking the Geek.exe file and choose “Send to” from the drop down menu. This will give you a shortcut icon on the desktop for future use of this handy application.
You can safely ignore any security pop ups that may appear before the program opens.
Either way you open it once Geek Uninstaller is running select the program you wish to uninstall by right clicking it and then choose “Uninstall” from the drop down menu.

Follow and accept all uninstall options once the uninstaller begins.
It is recommended when removing any Antivirus/Security program, or if you have errors or difficulty removing any program to use “Force removal” to uninstall the program.
