Windows has Detected your Computers Performance is slow
Hello,
So recently I have been having an issue on my personal computer. My Computer stalls on log off screen (stays there forever) so I decided to update everything on my system to try and fix it but I beleive this introduced other issues. I updated all my drivers including: graphics, lan, chipset as well as performed all Windows updates, updated Java/flash, a registry clean using CCleaner (.reg backup available), remove unneeded startup items using msconfig.
However recently I keep getting this message: Windows has Detected your Computers Performance is slow
My color scheme also gets automatically changed to Windows 7 basic every now and again. I never had this issue before. Some research reveals it may be running out of virtual ram?
My specs for this PC should be fine for the what I am running:
i7 3930K, nVidia Gigabyte 680SOC, 16GB corsair vengence Ram, Asrock x79 exteme6 mobo.
I notice sometime it happens when I launch my favourite game: League of Legends and other times when looking at Youtube videos or opening Chrome. In game I notice its performing slower than usual. FPS drops where I didn't get any before on the same settings. Related to graphics driver update?
I followed a bunch of steps online but it didn't help. Also I notice that 2 times by computer became all slow and all movements like mouse, application opening, closing, CONTROL ALT DELETE were also being completed very slowly (almost like a freeze but mouse would still move slowly) causing me to shutdown via power button, this once causing a BSOD (attached).
I initially thought it was a virus but a MSE and Malwarebytes Anti Malware scan did not find anything.
I'm going to clean the insides of the computer tomorrow and replug in all the wires as I read somewhere but this probably won't fix anything. What else should I do?
Any help is appreciated.
