Computer Lags 1-5 seconds trying to troubleshoot problem
Win 7 64
ASUS Crosshair V Formula
16GB Vengeance RAM
750 Watt PSU
NVIDIA GTX 570 Video Card
128GB SSD
Switched to 500GB 7200 RPM HD for troubleshooting purposes.
Hello all. I have tried a lot of things to figure out my lag problem. Randomly my computer will lag for 1-5 seconds, freezing in place then back to normal. During this time the HD light is on solid.
I have updated ALL motherboard drivers/bios/chipset/SATA etc., HD and SSD firmware up to date and video card drivers also. Run several virus scans with 5 different virus/maleware/spyware programs. I replaced my RAM and tried different hard drives. I have tried two different nvidia video cards with up to date drivers cleanly installed. I have reformatted both the SSD and HD (with up to date drivers installed) with no programs installed but Skyrim, Dark Ages of Camelot and my Anti Virus AVG Internet Security and also with and without AVG running. I have turned off and then back on the LPM for the hard drives. I have also turned off service indexing before I reformatted and left everything as default after reformatting
Currently after start-up I have under 50 processes running including system and user files. This happens while watching a movie, playing a game, surfing the internet or typing a document.
I am looking for anymore troubleshooting tips or solutions that can be offered.
