Okay, so this all started when I got a virus and reformatted my computer. After reinstalling windows xp sp2 and getting everything up to date and drivers installed (driver order was via hyperions, graphics, sound). I have the latest everything except for bios version. official nvidia drivers off their site and all. Problem being is this. my system seems to lag more than it ever did, and whenever I go to run a program or install something my mouse will totally lag and freeze up. The icon will freeze up, but the mouse will still move, get it? The only thing I installed was world of warcraft and my mouse(icon) totally froze and I had to restart to get it back. My guess would be the graphic drivers and I'm going to try and replace them tomorrow. I don't think it's the bios or even the mobo chipset drivers. My system was running flawlessly before the virus and reformat. I doubt any existance of the virus is still here as I ran nod32 numerous times. I'm at a loss and any help is greatly appreciated.
