wtf /g/
why is my gpu at 100% while i'm not running anything?
>>51485601
>AMD
in all seriousness, anybody been in my situation and knew what caused it?
Is anything using CPU as well? I can't think of anything that would require 100% of your GPU but not even touch your CPU.
here is my task manager right now
>le bitcoin miner face

>>51485671
if true, how to i identify and remove?
Do not be alarmed. You AMD card is working as intended.
Botnet
>>51485679
unplug your internet & reboot
see GPU activity
inb4 idle b/c can't connect to mining pool
*sigh* c'mon /g/uys
help a bro out
i really don't want to do a fresh system install
You got a miner, faggot.
You just have a bitcoin miner you idiot. Run some AV/Malwarebytes.
the word 'botnet' is thrown around a lot these days, but what you have is actually a real botnet.
>>51485679
Do this to check >>51485740
If it's idle when internet is disconnected but active when connected then you got a miner.
Check your startup items for suspicious things.
Get Malwarebytes free and do a scan.
confirm for bitcoin miner, turned off internet and gpu went back to 0%
i ran malbytes with the latest update = clean
i ran spybot with latest update = clean
i ran MSE with latest update = clean
what do now?
This is what you get for endorsing illegal pirates
AMD HAS NO DRIVERS
>>51485789
Just do a clean install desu senpai
>>51485789
Check what CCleaner lists as your startup programs and scheduled tasks.

Try ComboFix and let us know if it works
>>51485789
download COMODO cleaning utilities
run the startup analyser/autorun or whatever it's called
it will display EVERYTHING that boots with your PC
even if the malware uses tricks like hiding itself in task shed n shit
then if you think you found the binary, upload it to virustotal.com and post results here
and remove it (obviously)
>>51485601
Adwcleaner is a possible solution aswell
>>51485877
combofix didn't do shit
>>51485910
>>51485910
didn't know what to look for, half the stuff i don't recognize, ruined system, did a system restore
>>51485991
>>51485991
this actually did the trick, i'm back to idle now
thanks anon!
Today we witnessed a miracle
/g/ was actually helpful
>>51486549
Yeah cause we fucking hate mining malware.
Almost killed my laptop, had a gt 520 and laptop got so hot it shutdown a few times.
Just gave up and installed mint with the gpu disabled. Fucking fermi.
Intel hd 3000 is plenty for regular shit.
>>51486549
/g/ is helpful every single day. We still have some wizards around, but some people don't believe in them and think that /g/ is dead and only good for shitposting.
>>51486642
And yet there were still two Jewtel/Novideo shitposters in this thread.
>>51486796
Meh, they didn't really accomplish anything.
>>51485789
install gentoo

Linux is a perfectly viable solution for some.

Did you have a driver crash while attempting to overclock?

What makes you think Antivirus software are actually useful?
They are just memes at this point.
Reinstall windows tbqh.
Holy fuck, someone save the thread, /g/ helped someone today.
Please don't uninstall my bitcoin miners
>"It's a bitcoin miner!" meme turned out to be actually true in this case
>/g/ helped someone today
I am proud
>>51485604
>implying that AMD is bad
>>51485601

>>51485664

>>>/v/
>>51485789
reinstall windows, don't use pirated software.
>>51485789
when malware caught my arss, I just switched to win10 but without activating it
it works perfectly fine, but I just got some limitations on my personalization options, wich I easily can bypass with an trick(can post how to do it if someone is interested)
>>51485601
My guess is that you're 13, downloaded something called "hotxxxmovie.avi.exe" or something similar, and now you're mining bitcoins for some fag
>>51487772
more probable is that he installed utorrent
>>51487695
Interested
Looks like you got some Bitcoin malware white boi
