Xeilious Posted January 5, 2018 ID:1197053 Share Posted January 5, 2018 (edited) Greetings, I have recently noticed that I believe that there may be a virus on my PC. How do I know? Well, I was playing an online game and I noticed I wasn't getting my usual FPS which is 75. Instead, It has been changing between 40-50. SO I decide to open task manager and I see the CPU is around 90%+. It then drops straight after. I look on my browser and I see that the game is running at 75 FPS. When I close the task manager the game goes back to around 40 FPS. At 1st I thought it was Malwarebytes Ant-Virus as it seemed like it was causing it with high CPU Usage. I proceeded to uninstall it and it seems like it wasn't. I run AdwCleaner, says no elements found. I run my Anti-Virus, no threats found. So I'm confused as to what to do. All help appreciated.

Once installed then open Malwarebytes and check for updates. Then click on the Scan tab and select Threat Scan and click on Start Scan button. Once the scan is completed click on the Export Summary button and save the file as a Text file to your desktop or other location you can find, and attach that log on your next reply.

Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted January 9, 2018 Root Admin ID:1198358 Share Posted January 9, 2018 The only potential issue appears to be from your 3ware card. I would seriously doubt it is an issue, but let's go ahead and do another scan with a Kaspersky antivirus scanner. Please download and run the following Kaspersky tool to remove any found threats Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool Let me know if it finds anything.
