Lags Every Minute
Nov 22, 2009
I have been having this complicating issue with my laptop. i have windows vista x64 bit home premium. i have determined that it is not my internet because games like counter strike source still lag very badly with my internet off (9 fps every minute). i have tried reducing the services and amount of processes running on my computer and it didn't help at all. do i just need to update vista? i recently have had this problem for a week or two and i cant figure it out.i have a Hp Pavilion Dv7, amd turion x2,ATI Radion HD 3200,4 GB of RAM.

I have a top notch computer. Quad core, 4gigs of memory, Nvidia 256mb video. All latest drivers. When I leave the Vista Aero glass on, my system lags. Takes 5 seconds for windows to switch or to show something.

i've searched for the answer but i've came up w/nothing. Here goes. When i'm using my full amount of bandwidth, my mouse lags, alot, and my 2nd core continually stays at 100 percent. it slows everything down. very strange.

I've got a strange situation. Anytime my cd drive is closed my computer lags to the point of no return. It won't load vista until I open the cd drive and while vista is running my computer will just about stop responding. All that moves is the mouse and I can click on things but they won't open until I reopen the cd drive.

Sorry if this is the wrong section but, sometimes when im just on the computer my computer will make a noise. I really dont know how to describe the noise but its like when the fan in your room is turned to like extra fast. Whenever the noise comes my computer just starts to lag.

just curious why it locks, and if it can be changed.
- If I turn on screensaver, and choose 'On resume, display logon screen'
- If I turn it off again, it locks my computer after the time set in screensaver. Even though it's turned off.

Here is the problem, yesterday i downloaded movie converter, and it asked me to restart. I restarted and after log in, after 1minute my vista freezes...all i can use is MSN, this is only program what is working, other programs are freezed. Also what i noticed that when my pc freezes, some ´´world shaped´´ icon comes to my start bar, green coloured. Im running 64bit vista. Ive run vista for more than 8months without any problem:

if anyone has seen my previous threads you might have seen me complaining about the speed of vista. now i have a powerful PC and i JUST reinstalled vista less than one month ago and AGAIN its loading so incredibly slow its painful and im about to cry. i have literally less than 20 programs installed on a 500 GB HDD and it boots up as slow as a win '98 20 mhz cpu computer. i swear, ive never been more confused in my life. i havent reinstalled or de-installed anything like at all, i upgraded to SP2 i tried to a system restore and of course, it failed. for the past week im literally finding myself going to eat dinner and then coming down to see that my startup programs are just finihsing after 30 minutes of initial boot. once they are all loaded the pc works like a charm and nothing goes wrong. if you say i have "too many startup programs" iwill laugh because i litteraly have 4 startup programs. yes ive tried no startup programs but it doesnt help WHATSOEVER. im just onwdering how windows can corrupt files like by itself. no its not a virus. i ve checked with over 4 diferent anti viruses.

I have a Gateway DX4720-03 Vista-64bit PC. Recently, I noticed something strange. The Screensaver always reverts back to 1 minute after booting up. While booting up, I can quickly check the screensaver settings, and the wait time is what I set before rebooting. After the services start on the PC, the time resets to 1 minute. When I check this in Safe Mode, the wait time stays whatever I set it previously, and does not change. How would you go about determining the bad startup program or service that is resetting the wait time?

I'm currently experiencing an issue with a Visa Business laptop where it had suddenly been taking approximately 20 minutes to boot, after running various virus scans and checking through the boot logs I was unable to find a solution and as such decided to reinstall Windows to resolve my problem. However, I have found that even after completely reformatting the drive and reinstalling Windows Visa I am still experiencing this extremely long boot time. I have observed that the long boot time does not occur if I select to boot in to safe mode, and for a large majority of the time when the computer is booting the hard disk activity light isn't even flashing with Windows freezing on some attempts while booting.
To attempt to see if this was a hardware issue I downloaded a copy of Linux Mint onto a DVD and booted from it, as expected it booted extremely fast (for a disk) compared to Windows. Being unable to fix the problem myself I have decided to finally request help from people whom would be more knowledgable in this area than me :P To assist in finding the resolution of my problem I have included a copy of the bootlog (I have disabled the drivers that do not load and have noticed no difference in the overall boot time).

Ever since I bought my new computer with vista vista ive been having these "lag spikes" every minute or so that last about 2-7 seconds,where everything around me character just runs in place.It seems as if the internet is being interrupted every minute for some reason,but I cant figure out why.The problem is either OS or computer related,but I cant figure out how to fix it.
