After removing a rather annoying piece of malware I ran into a rather unique problem. The computer would start up normally and idle indefinitely, but after running any given program for about 15 mintues the computer would lockup. I would be able of ctrl+alt+del once, but task manager wouldn't appear if I tried to pull it up. I would still have mouse control, but nothing else would respond after that. After the fourth time this happened in succession, I attempted to do a repair install of windows, however, the repair install hangs after five minutes. Please help?
