I've never paid this much to nearly ruin my computer equipment. You said on the very first full system scan, the machine froze. Was this a manual full system scan, a scheduled scan, or perhaps an automatic scan.
This will schedule a Full System Scan 15 minutes from now and since it is a scheduled scan it will not include those Tasks that are normally accomplished as part of a Full System Scan when run manually.

I would appreciate any help in advance. I have the same question 0. Kudos 0. Reg: Dec I appreciate it. Hi John, Sorry to hear that didn't clear up your situation. Let's try to dig deeper. We'll be awaiting your response. Reg: Apr In some cases, a user could end up in the red. It raises all kinds of ethical, social and economic concerns. At least then a graphics card might actually become a graphics card again, and not a mining card. Chris' gaming experiences go back to the mid-nineties when he conned his parents into buying an 'educational PC' that was conveniently overpowered to play Doom and Tie Fighter.
He developed a love of extreme overclocking that destroyed his savings despite the cheaper hardware on offer via his job at a PC store. Chris still puts far too many hours into Borderlands 3, always striving to become a more efficient killer. Audio player loading…. Chris Szewczyk.
