This computer... ...well it has random... issues, on startup. Once in a while when I reboot it my moniter ends up with tons of colored lines through it (from the DOS prompt, so it must be a motherboard issue) until I reboot it again, where it may or may not still have those big lines running through it... and some times when I boot up my "CPU Usage" is already being taxed between 54 and 60% with nothing running! Now I've tried virus scanners and scandisking and turning off different start up programs but without any luck. It's hard to test because it only happens about 1/3rd of the time I boot up the computer, though lately it feels more like 1/2. What the hell? Could this be my motherboard?
