my computer is lagging bad and not sure why
I am having troubles with my computer suddenly getting super laggy. It seems to happen when I am transfering avi files from one drive to another (it seems to freeze in the middle of doing this and then after 5 or 10 minutes picks up where it left off) but not exclusively limited to this. It is affecting my internet usage, my music listening and movie watching. If I look at my performance monitor at the time, there does not show any high cpu or memory usage or draining while this is happening.
I have checked the temp of my cpu : 49c
I have cleaned my registery and defragged my hard drives.
I have made sure I have no spyware or malware.
I have made sure I do not have a virus.
I had windows do an extended ram test with 5 passes with no problems.
My drives all have a minimum of 30gb of free space.
This is fairly recent and I'm not sure why this is happening. I cannot pinpoint the date it started.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
