    Also try the High Performance power plan (Control Panel - Power Options).

    Nope, management engine wasn't installed from HP's site. (I think it became installed via HP's drivers disc, that I used on this install) I'll update it anyway now. edit: no I hadn't have it installed at all!! (what does it do? and do I really need it?)

    Oh, and the power plan is allready high performance.

    correction: management engine seems to be installed on the system, even I didn't see it earlier.
    I ran repair Management Engine just to be sure it works.

    Just doublechecked that the latest version of windows update had been installed. (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/3083324) And yes it is.

    You could perhaps check these updates and decide whether you want them:

    Thanks again, I'll look them through... I definetely don't want any part of them as long as I'm not forced to.
    I'll continue with uninstalling all of these.

    Uninstalling KB2999226 Windows 10 Universal CRT, caused HP to give me a warning, that newest chipset driver needs newer version of Windows. ... (i dont care... will remove all on that list)

    After removing all of those updates on that list, restarted the system and tried to run facebook, no lag. :)

    Now is a good time to image backup System Partitions and C if you got an external drive to spare

    Yep, I'll try for a while and if I will see no lag, I'll start removing all this HP crap; like HP connection manager, HP accelometer... i mean with SSD computer... is it necessary?

    Actually I was about to name the title first: Optimizing win 7 ... So I'm still interested to hear good ideas about what to remove for maximizing / optimizing the performance. This time however i'm very hopefull that it was those sneaky updates that rocked the boat.... we'll see...

    And thanks a lot for quick replies and everything. :)
