swap RAM and or video card with another. and see if it still happens. Most likely one of those is the culprit.

What type of monitor u have?

also...

1. make sure the cable to the monitor is plugged in properly (not slack)

2. download the latest driver for your graphics card

3. this is going to sound silly but believe me..it worked for a couple of machines i fixed in the past - shut down the machine and remove the power cord to the monitor....hold down the power button on the monitor for 30 seconds...then plug the power cord back in and turn on the pc and monitor. (this is a kind of reset...but not really a proper reset....too long to explain, just try it. lol)

[slickrick777]

lol...already swapped the ram, so it's not that...the screen is an asus 24" l.e.d, cyah remember the model off hand!

you should try this yourself and understand that it will never work because you do not have permission over that folder, even as a super admin. That's like trying to be clever and trying to format your C: drive while you're using Windows.

Pioneer if none of those antiviruses work, even the best, you can do a system restore if you're using Win 7. I encountered some nasty root kits in the past and nothing could remove it!! Even made a boot CD from Kaspersky. Did a system restore from a recent date and then scanned HDD with an AV; it was cleaned.

I've used Microsoft security essentials and Panda cloud antivirus on several different systems recently with good results

slickrick777, if you have an extra monitor or tv, connect them in clone mode so you can see if the rest of the system is still functioning like normal when it happens.
or if you don't have that, try to run a dvd (autoplay) when it happens.
If everything else works, => your monitor could be the problem.
If the computer freezing up when it happens you have bigger problems

[pioneer]

no luck...tried "replace" on services.exe with hitmanpro and services.exe just doesn't wanna be replaced

When it infects your System32 then you usually have to do a clean install because the System32 files protects and would not let the antivirus modify it.

Correct!!!
OP check and see if ur fan for ur graphics card eh full of dust or if it running 'dead'
Pioneer could also try booting in safe mode and locate the file and delete it, run a disk clean up as well in safe mode one time

[slickrick777]

yea d fan was full ah dust...didn't recognise this cause the fan on my graphics card faced below, so it wasn't noticeable...good ting ah say lemme check it wee...lol...functioning better for now!

[slickrick777]

well overheating start back now...running windows 8, recently re-installed os...as the os boots up about less than 5 mins into starting up, I can't even touch the graphics card, very hot...ne suggestions?

also kaspersky top notch antivirus
pio kaspersky is only $20US for 3 user
AVG is tooze
norton has become bloatware (old folks still like the name i guess )

yo if you dose use MSI Afterburner software unlock the voltage any where between 1.100v and 1.138v some times these cards need more power to maintain reliability and be stable. Might have to change the thermal paste on d card also to bring back down them temps, set fan to 75 or 80% depending on idle temps
