AVAST seemed to have presented itself along with a Adobe Flash update. I don;t usually use AV s/w. I'll ditch it 4 sure.
I've just performed a Custom install of Win 10, had my 10 and 12 year old grandsons on my PC last summer, not sure the stuff that came along with all the video games they installed, but it was running terribly after they had their fun. Since the reinstall of the OS it starts up nice and the desktop doesn't take ages to load as is did post summer fun! Prior to this the PC ran just fine.
I'm running AutoCAD 2017 / Bluebeam Revu, My $15 MS Office, bought with the Home User Program a cpl years ago was taken when the Custom install occurred. Unfortunately Im no longer with that company! So I'm struggling with Apache Open office, which I really don;t like.
I would really give up on the idea of overclocking. Your motherboard was a budget board when released ie it is designed for basic use NOT overclocking and or gaming. Honestly the best advise would be to get rid of windows 10 and go with a linux distro designed for old hardware. This is going to give you the most "speed" out of the system. Something like lubuntu is designed for old hardware and or netbooks. https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=lubuntu
@crjdriver thanks for the suggestion. It will take time for me to become familiar with a new OS especially after all these years using MS. Then using this at home at my office, when I go to another office / PC I'll prob end up by forgetting MS Win! Age is not on my side! lol
Removed LibreOffice, seems like a good s/w. seemed to take its time opening / closing word docs.
Thanks anyways.
