    My pc has been acting weird lately it screenshot today by itself with the Xbox game bar out of nowhere and noticed it gets slower when I connect to the WiFi so I may be apart of a botnet and also been seeing slow speed in games and also I’ve been having this weird problem when I’m scrolling threw my wind

    Did our Epson printer get hacked?

    Another question, is this on a home network or a work network? The steps @eidairaman1 listed are always a good first step. If this is on a work network you manage, I'd be much more concerned than the home one. It is possible someone is screwing with you, but malware could also be the culprit.

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
