Yes, my friend says it might have something to do with video drivers.

Please download the latest version of Kaspersky GetSystemInfo (GSI) from Kaspersky and save it to your Desktop.
[color:4f71="red"]Please close all other applications running on your system.

Please double click GetSystemInfo.exe to open it.

Click the Settings button.



Set it to Maximum



IMPORTANT! Then please click Customize - choose Driver / Ports tab and uncheck Scan Ports.


Click Create Report to run it.

It will create a zip folder called GetSystemInfo_XXXXXXXXXXXXXX.zip on your Desktop. Please upload the folder to Kaspersky GSI Parser and click the Submit button.

Please copy and paste the url of the GSI Parser report (not the log) in your next reply.

Close out of it, then right click on it and select Run as Administrator.

I suspect Windows Aero might be the problem.

Attempt to turn it off to see if it solves the issue.

Please tell me when this first happened, and what you were doing at the time of the incident (if anything).

If it happened recently, please try a System Restore.
Start > Start Search
type in System Restore and hit enter.

Go back to a recent restore point and see if it solves the issue.

I had a virus on my computer when this first happened, like a week ago. Is it still safe to do the system restore.
