Only if you have a working motherboard that you can test the CPU in. It is more likely to be the motherboard at fault than the CPU but you can't be sure without trying it.

i cant agree more with that.
i had a system that had a cheapo psu in it and when we had a thunderstorm last year, it blew the psu and i thought it had taken the whole lot with it including the (high spec at the time) sound card.
i have just recently built a new system and put the card in my new system and to my amazement, it worked fine

Sounds like there are a bunch of services running that are just in a continual loop attempting to close (prob something like iTunes)
I thoroughly recommend using a program called TuneUp Utilities which will scan your system and give you a load of performance options, which will pinpoint the services that are hanging when you shutdown, and will override anything that takes longer than 15seconds to shutdown. Give it a try

maybe its a power saving feature where it limits the speed of the processor to improve battery life

I'm trying to install some anti-virus software but it tells me that I have to remove something called 'AVG8' beforehand. (which I think is another type of AV software.)
Having searched my drives for this software and attempted to remove it with the software removal tool it is nowhere to be found - not in the program files, nowhere. My Antivirus indicates it was once located in the c:/program files but it isn't there now.
I have deleted all traces of it from my laptop but its still preventing the installation.
What is the best way to ensure all traces of this AVG 8 is removed from my laptop?
Any help would be gratefully appreciated.
