xps 8500 .......(i7 -3.8Ghz, 32Gb ram)


I have updated - Bios (A14) , I have went thru and updated All drivers (dell site).

Ran win updates and updated

I cleared contents of C:\windows\software distribution\download

I have disconnected ALL external devices connected to the computer (except the mouse and the keyboard)

Uninstalled Win Security Essentials

Disabled Comodo firewall - (Have no other third party security program )

Disabled wifi and connected straight ethernet cable.

C: OS hard drive with a few things on it
