PC Freezes at Startup

[JoltFTW]

My PC is currently freezing about 95% of the time after about 2 minutes of signing on. I have tried for two days now to fix it, but I can't figure out whats wrong with it. It never happened before I deleted the very first User Account ever made, i believe this may have caused it, though I ran CCleaner and fixed all the registery's and such.

here is my HijackThisLog:

What all do you have running in msconfig>startup?

 

[techpro5238]

Hello Jolt,

I am seeing CWS in this log. Also, you are running two anti-viruses. Read the following explanation on why you shouldn't run two at the same time:

Anti-Virus programs take up an enormous amount of your computer's resources when they are actively scanning your computer. Having two anti-virus programs running at the same time can cause your computer to run very slow, become unstable and even, in rare cases, crash.

If you choose to install more than one Anti-Virus program on your computer, then only one of them should be active in memory at a time.

There are basically two types of these programs:
On-Access and On-Demand

On-Access Scanners
As the name implies, are scanners that run in the background all the time the PC is turned on and running. The main function of an On-Access scanner is to monitor activity on your machine.

On-Demand Scanners
As the name implies, are scanners that only run when you ask them to.
Such as:
Online Scans and scanners that run on your machine but are not actively scanning your machine.

Please print out these instructions before executing them.

Step1

Download CWShredder here to its own folder.

Update CWShredder

• Open CWShredder and click I AGREE
• Click Check For Update
• Close CWShredder

Boot into Safe Mode:
Restart your computer and as soon as it starts booting up again continuously tap F8. A menu should come up where you will be given the option to enter Safe Mode.

Now run CWShredder. Click I Agree, then Fix and then Next, let it fix everything it asks about. Reboot your computer into normal windows.

Step2

Please download Deckard's System Scanner (DSS) and save it to your Desktop.

• Close all other windows before proceeding.
• Double-click on dss.exe and follow the prompts.
• When it has finished, dss will open two Notepads main.txt and extra.txt -- please copy (CTRL+A and then CTRL+C) and paste (CTRL+V) the contents of main.txt and extra.txt in your next reply.
