Likewise it's going to be rather difficult to explain my issues, but I'll try my best.
First off, I'm going to say that most recently (this month, ot be specific) I had bought and isntalled a new graphics card driver. I'm also using another graphics card driver at the same time. The two being an ASUS AMD 6450 graphics card, and one that the computer came with. (ATI 3200 I think?) And Iw as wondering that, if I have both of them active at the same time, if it would cause any conflicts with each other.
Secondly, and this may be due to the aforementioned graphics card installation, but the computer has been a little slow in doing startups lately when I or my dad log in on our respective sides of the computers. This I'm not minding, but I was wondering if it was also affecting the next thing I'm about to say:
My dad's side works fine. When I work on my side, it works fine for a while, but then the program windows act like as if I was running everything on Safe mode. Even more bizzarre is that a good number of programs don't respond like they should be. I'm wondering if there's a corrupted file on my side of the computer or if it's a corrupted profile altogether. (This also recently affected my dad's side if both of us are logged in at the same time)
Thirdly, if I log off on my side of the comptuer, then log back on, there's a massive hangup time, before it finally logs me in - with everything in "safe mode" appearance. Again, I'm wondering if this is due to a corrupted file or a corrupted profile on my side.
One last thing, I keep getting hit by the "System restore" virus - I'm able to halt it easily and restore it prior to when the virus hits, but I notice something's up when I get an error message saying that both "system Shield" and "windows Defender" are both disabled - The latter is fine because my dad bought and installed System Mechanic, but what does System Shield do and should i worry about it being disabled so often?
Any help on any of these is greatly appreciated. I keep wanting to get my dad to take this to a professional, but he's too stubborn to even do so.
