[QUOTE="rndmblk, post: 940319, member: 89746"] It must be hard to provide assistance, especially outside a corporate environment when everything should be configured basically the same. There could be a virus/malware, there could be another PC issue (eg. driver incompatible), there could be a problem with the user's expectations or there could be nothing at all. I had a colleague who was certain someone was mining bitcoin on his PC. It turns out that his SSD was disconnecting and reconnecting hundreds of times per day due to a fault. Replacing that made the performance a lot more consistent and he had no more concerns about mining [/QUOTE]
