My PC is taking over 7mins to reboot. All programs now take for ever to begin and the screen is freezing up when I run more than 2 programs. Any help would be much appreciated.


Here is my log file:

You appear to running two (2) Anti-Spyware Guards at the same time (AVG and Ashampoo). Such real-time process will likely conflict with each other as well as duplicate very memory intensive processes.

Please disable one of those processes - suggest Ashampoo as it is less commonly used and well known.
