Insufficient system resources, exception unknown software exception, or out of memory errors.

Hi experts,

I am using Windows XP 2002, and service pack 3 (bit 32).

I was running it about 8-10 hours, after that it was showing EF open error, insufficient system resources, exception unknown software exception, or out of memory errors. 

But the pc would not freeze; the start menu icon would go blank. Also it won't start the task manager and some programs won't start at all. Then it needs to restart and then it is running very well for some hours.

I have installed Spybot and Avira Antivirus. Before this problem, I ran MGTools, Combofix, CCleaner, and also running some online scans.

Still I am getting this problem and now it is occurring more often. Is this a hardware problem or virus problem?

I need to solve it. Need your suggestions. Please help me.

Thanks in advance.

Since you are saying that those errors were occurring before you installed an antivirus program on your computer then it is most probable that the reason why you PC is behaving that is due to a virus attack on your computer. Sometimes it can be hard for an antivirus to overpower some virus once they are on your system. That is why it is a good idea to make sure that you install an antivirus first thing before you start installing other applications and using the computer.

What I will recommend that you do to fix that problem is the following:

  • Update the antivirus you have installed on your computer and then perform a full scan of the system so that all viruses and Trojans on the computer will be eliminated.
  • Install a Malwarebytes Antimalware program and use it to scan the computer.

If the above remedies do not help you might need to format the computer, and this time round you will have to make sure that an antivirus is installed before you start doing other things on the computer.

Carl

Hi,

I think this problem that you have encountered is just because of the problem with the out dated version of Microsoft .Net Framework as you have mentioned its version as 2.0 like something. Install the newer version and you may get rid of this problem. I would like to say that Microsoft developed the latest version of Microsoft .NET Framework 4 4.0. 30319. 1. You can download this from internet free of cost as it is a freeware. For your downloading support, I am giving you a downloading link:

I think your problem is solved by now

Thanks for having your time
