Suddenly Getting Very Bad FPS In ALL Of My Games?

Hi there,

First of all, I know my laptop isn't a "gaming computer" heck, I know it is a very bad computer, it has bad CPU and very bad GPU, not to mention low ram. But it's all I have, and it can run a lot of games, on the lowest settings, depending on what game it is, and if it has crappy enough graphics.

I just tried playing one of my games yesterday, and I noticed it's FPS dropping from 2-10 frames per second, and staying there. I find this unbearable, and I cannot play with this frame rate. I tried some of my other games, I still got that same problem. I even tried Mount & Blade: Warband, which came out in the 2000's. Normally Mount & Blade can run with 100+ frames on my crappy laptop, but today It was only giving me 3-7 frames.

This is really weird and I don't know what to do. I have run CCleaner, and I emptied out the %temp% folder/s. I have altered my background running and startup programs/processes. I have tried updating my drivers with IOBit's 'Driver Booster 2' but nothing has changed or improved it.

Can you guys help me? I think my specs will be hooked up to my account, since I synced it before. Thanks!

**EDIT**

I should also mention, that I have been having problems with playing video's on youtube, and facebook. I have even had major problems with playing video files on my computer, I am getting a lot of lagging, stuttering and distortion. I look at my Task Manager and the ram is nearly all being used at all times, but that can be expected since I only have 4gb of ram in my laptop. The CPU on another hand, is at 80%-100% and I think that's why my computer Is being laggy etc. Still, anything I can do to fix this??

Do you shutdown your laptop or do you just sleep/hibernate? a restart maybe just what the doctor ordered (flushes the RAM).

If your cpu is showing 80% utilization, you likely have some malware running in the background....

Go to bleepingcomputer and DL/run each of the above...

TFC (Temp File Cleaner)

TDSS (Kaspersky anti-rootkit)

Adwcleaner

Rkill

Then go to malwarebytes.org and DL/run MB Antimalware....

Once that is done, reboot, and rerun it, and, if it says found "0" infections, you stand a 98% chance of being OK....
