DNS_C Protocol Causes Lag Spikes Every 10-20 Seconds
Mar 4, 2012
I have noticed that svchost.exe is doing this connections every 10-20 seconds, and every 10-20 seconds there is a lag spike that jump the latency up to 1000ms and more.
I want to disabled this periodical connections that windows does...I don't know what Has caused this...I have tried completely disabling svchost.exe access to internet but than no application launched can connect to internet.
The connections are port specific, the remote ip to which it connects to is always 192.168.1.1:53, which for sure is the ip of the dns (redirected by the router) plus the port 53. I have tried completely disabling the access to this remote port for all the local ip and local ports with my firewall, but it just keeps avoiding it. I have used this method with the connections to microsoft with the port 3544 witch are being disabled.
I am currently renting a laptop from Rent-A-Center, a Compaq Presario CQ62 and It Lags In anything I am doing on it. Playing Games (Portal, Half-Life 1 or 2, or any) Web Surfing (Firefox, Chrome, IE8)
I am trying to fix a Samsung laptop for a friend. She admits to having 'fiddled' with the networking applets in Control Panel with the result that neither LAN nor Wi-fi functions any more.I have noticed that I am unable to use the GUI to access IPv4 Properties because the button is greyed out. Also greyed out is Uninstall. The only button available is Install. I have tried that, but after rebooting the situation appears to be the same. I have tried using the command prompt as Administrator and using NETSH to uninstall IP, install it, reset it etc, rebooting every time but without any noticeable change afterwards. Also tried NETSH WINSOCK RESET after the above. I have also tried the above in recovery mode with networking enabled. Again, no change!Unfortunately, the model does not have a CD drive. However, it has USB ports. Fortunately, I do have a generic 32-bit Win 7 Home Premium CD - which is the operating system installed on the PC. So I could copy the CD in one way or another to an external USB drive and work from that if necessary. If I knew what I had to do!There is a lot of valuable data on the PC and I don't want to be responsible for losing it. Of course, I could try backing it all up but she has saved stuff all over the place and I am bound to miss something! Yes, I could copy the entire disk ...... I know!! But we would still have to find and retrieve the data later.

windows 7 x64 on my laptop (intel core i5 @ 2.50ghz, 4 gb ram) has recently started freezing for a few seconds every few seconds, when i'm doing just about anything: browsing the web, copying files, using text redactor, etc. only the mouse cursor responds, control is back after a couple of seconds.
* the behaviour remains the same when booting in the safe mode * there are no cpu or memory usage peaks in process explorer * there are no hardware conflicts in device manager * there are no critical errors in system log * there is no antivirus active * hardware tests (memory, etc.) do not report any errors
i suspect this has started after i've updated all the drivers from manufacturer's site, but i am not 100% sure. anyway, i do not know which driver has caused this and i cannot easily restore to the previous state.
I have a month-old Dell Inspiron N7010 Core i5 460M with 6 gigs of ram running on Windows 7. Until recently, it has been starting up in about 75 seconds. However, out of nowhere, it suddenly began starting up in between 2 and a half minutes to 3 minutes. I am completely baffled, and I do not know what is wrong. Could it have been something I installed, or is it something that is beyond my knowledge. The last things I downloaded before the problems started were Starcraft II, Need for Speed World, and Microsoft Security Essentials, but I doubt one of those is the source of problem.
When i am remote desktoping to one of our terminal servers from windows 7 and then shadowing a users session as soon as i connect to the users session via Terminal Services Manager I get the following error:'Because of a protocol error, this session will be disconnected. please try connecting to the remote computer again.'It appears to be a problem with windows 7 remote desktop, as i also have XP and Vista machines which i do the same on but they work fine!
Being somewhat bored I began playing around with Homegroups. I delved into HG awhile back but never really got into it. To make a long story short I can't start the service 'Peer Name Resolution Protocol' which is required for HG. There are 3 Peer type services. One is started (Peer Networking Identity Manager). The other one (Peer Networking Grouping) is not because it depends on 'Peer Name Resolution Protocol.' Both Homegroup services are started and I have IPV6 enabled on my NIC and in the LAN properties. Also the last time I played around with HG it seemed I needed the MS Firewall service started which it is. The event log has this: 'The Peer Name Resolution Protocol cloud did not start because the creation of the default identity failed with error code: 0x80630801.
In Default Programs, When I select 'Associate a file type or protocol with a program'. When I select an extension and click the Change Program button, the program I want is not on the list, So I select [Browse] and select the program I want then nothing happens. How do I add a program to the list ?
Should I upgrade the firmware of my netgear wndr3700 router so it will now support ip6 protocol instead of ip4. The update in in netgears website. The support for my router has expires so I would need to pay for support if there any problems.The netgear wndr3700 works perfectly right now with my computer and wireless blue ray player..

Recently I've been encountering an issue where I'll be doing minimal tasks such as using safari with less than 4 tabs open. In the background I have photoshop open but not currently doing anything with. As well as aim and MSN and sometimes itunes. All of a sudden the whole thing slows to a crawl and I get the urge to throw it out the window. So i open the task manager and take a look and my CPU is at 100% (physical memory is around 30%). In the task manager i sort it so the highest CPU eating processes are at the top and they continue to jump around. for instance, safari might have 12 then 2 then 15 then 22 etc. I try ending a process that I'm not using and another process just spikes higher. if there is any drop, it's only down to about 92%ish. And it will behave like this until i close everything and start over. I've never really had this problem until recently and the computer isn't that old. I bought it in May 2010. It's a HP G62-144DX with a 2.13GHz Intel Core i3-330M Processor and 8GB of RAM. My windows experience rating is a 4.2 with my processor and memory being a 6.2. According to speedfan, my temps average in the 30s to 50s degrees celsius.
I've noticed while playing Skyrim that my CPU spikes to 100% causing FPS to go down and the computer to lag.
I'm able to verify the CPU load via my G13 display set to the core temp application.
I've not noticed any type of consistency when this happens and by the time I am able to maneuver to the Task Manager to check which process is causing this, it stops.
I've had the HP DV6-3052nr for about a year and a half. My processor is an Intel Core i7, my graphics card is the ATI Mobility Radeon 5650, and it contains 6GB of RAM. A year ago at this time, I was running the game Crysis along with other programs all at once with an accumulated memory usage of 1,500,000. The CPU was at 15% while this was happening. Today, with all other programs closed, I can hardly run Skype, Oovoo, or Minecraft without my CPU spiking to 92% - 100%. The only way for me to solve the lag produced is by restarting my laptop. Why is it that the performance has declined, and aside from formatting, what alternatives do I have to return the performance to what it had once been?
This problem has been plaguing me for so long. Sometimes when I install games or extract games that is in a RAR file, my RAM spike to a point where 94% of the memory is used. The longer the installation of the game or file is, more ram is consumed. Anyone care to enlighten me how did this happen? So far the only way for me to solve it is to reset the whole system since I can't do anything on the task manager.
My PC Specs is quite updated so I doubt it is some hardware problem?

Something is wrong with my Sony Vaio FW series laptop.. I get major FPS spikes in any game I attempt to run (Dragon Nest, Audition), with FPS dipping down to ~10 every five seconds. When I check Task Manager, it's the games that are taking up the most CPU with overall CPU usage at 90%+. This is really strange and abnormal as I had never had any problems with those games taking up CPU and fps spiking until today (they ran fine yesterday).Between yesterday and today.. I used compressed air to clean my laptop's fan, and I visited some movie watching sites (which resulted in some popups appearing). I'm unsure if the problem can be attributed to a virus, but I ran a full scan of Malwarebytes and did a deep clean on Advanced System Care, none of which helped fix the problem. Firefox, Skype, and other applications appear to run as quickly and smoothly as they did before. However, I've gotten three BSODs in the last 30 minutes, and my laptop appears to be overheating: Here is my Hijack This Log : xks.
EDIT: I understand that a system restore will likely solve all problems, but I want to save that as a last resort.
EDIT1: I think the BSODs were a result of me running CPUID HWMonitor to check for the temperatures - each BSOD occurred right after or soon after I ran it. I'm unsure why running that specific program triggers a BSOD, but if I leave it alone my computer appears to be fine (no BSODs so far after I stopped running it).
I got a new laptop (DELL XPS 172nd Generation Intel Core i5-2450M processor) recently and I had it returned for having lag spikes that would happen whenever it felt like. (gaming, videos, Reddit, etc.). Dell sent me a new computer that also has the same problem, lag spikes that give off a noise that you would expect from a transformer.
i am trying to record some game play for a Internet channel and i keep getting lag spikes on 1 game. when ever i play league of legends i always will have a frame rate drop. i usually get around 120-90 fps without recording and 60-40 fps with recording but for some reason there will always be a drop to around 1-10 for about 2 secs.
I've been having trouble with my PC for quite a while now, and have been looking for a fix for a long time. When I'm using my computer every so often I will get random lag spikes, that last for around 2-5 seconds. When it happens everything slows down, and the sound sounds like a broken CD/DVD where it goes all choppy.Recently I was staying at a friends house, where my computer wasn't connected to the internet, and while I was there I didn't have the problem at all, so I think it's something to do with being connected to the internet.
I installed windows 7 RC a few days ago, and every 2-10 seconds it would spike with lag, the mouse would jump and the internet would do the same i would get a consistent low rate and every now and then it would jump to normal.
I found out the problem was with my network card, i had to roll back the driver on my network card for it to work properly.
Now my network card updates itself every now and then and i have to go back and change it again.
I was wondering if anybody else has had similar problems like this, and or found a permanent fix for this.
On occasion my physical memory usage will quickly rise form between 1 to 2 gigs of memory usage to over four until it reaches 98-99% percent of memory usage. I am running on 5 gigs of ram. This problem has even occurred while the computer was essentially idle. When this happens the computer loses almost all functionality. I've tried ending all non-essential processes to alleviate this problem but it makes no difference.
I just installed Windows 7 64 bit and FL Studio 10. Whenever I open up a project in FL studio 10 the CPU spikes to 90%. I am usin an ASIO soundcard in the EMU 1616m and a quadcore CPU. This never happened when I was running FL studio inside XP 32 bit.
Ever since I installed Windows 7 on my PC a few months ago I've been getting consistent ping spikes on basically every game I play, but mostly on this one I'm playing most of the time. My ping will be a solid 20-22 for few minutes (often less and more often) when all of a sudden my ping spikes in the hundreds (150-400). Along with this, sometimes my UDP goes red. This never happened with XP, I'll even have the same game server on beside me with XP and I'll never see ping spikes. I've talked to other people who play the game and they experience the same thing, many of them for this very reason have decided to stick with XP for these particular game(s).Another thing that I've noticed since installing 7 is a delay (no better way to describe it, can't say it's lag since it says my ping is 20?). While on my XP PC 20 ping will feel just like that, 20 ping. On the 7, it feels like 50-70 (while saying 20). The game I play is very dependent on fast reaction times so this is obviously very annoying to me.
've encountered in the last few days on my laptop. I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure it has happened since a Windows Update installed as I remember a big registry update....like I say, may be wrong! [code] My physical memory is pretty stable at around 1.6 to 1.7 Gb but my CPU spikes are just haywire and latency on keyboard strokes is driving me nuts! Even running no programmes the CPU is betwen 26 and 100%...whilst I'm running IE then it's 95 to 100%.The task manager graph is just a total zigzag.Unfortunately, i don't think I have a restore point to go back to pre-Update so I don't think I have that easy route out.
Recently when ever I'm playing games or running programs, they suddenly spike up to 100% cpu usage and start lagging very badly.They normally run fine and quite smoothly but then after a while, they suddenly stop working. It usually stops if i leave them alone for some time or if i close the program, but i don't think the application itself has anything to do with it.This happens on many different games and applications alike, but normally only with games, even old ones.I checked my processes and it says i have 61-65 processes running! Isn't this too high? how can i check if those processes are OK? I have HijackThis and can post a log file if needed.
I recently bought a new computer and everything works fine, I play League of Legends, Borderlands, Left 4 Dead all in high settings and I get constant fps and very smooth gameplay.But when I try to play the oldest game ever (Counter-Strike 1.6) I get fps spikes very very often. I am playing in OpenGL, yes. I disabled vsync, yes. I even went to my nvidia control panel and just straight up set everything up for high performance and not quality and I still get fps drops to around 40's-50's.

I'm having issues since I started using wireless, when playing games (does not matter which, I will always get these lag spikes) where the game will freeze and treadmil (everybody will walk in spot) then unfreeze, this will happen multiple times and is very annoying, making games close to unplayable
Essentially I am getting seemingly random spikes in my cpu usage where it ramps up to 100% and windows basically freezes for an extended period of time. Sometimes I simply have 1 google chrome tab open with no other apps actively running in the foreground and I get these cpu spikes. I just did a clean install of windows 7 to try and eradicate this and it persists. I am at a loss as to what the problem is. What is odd is even though the cpu usage spikes at 100% my available memory is almost always nearly around 50% still. So I am just not sure what is happening.
(unfortunately to no avail) High CPU usage, programs crashing, windows hanging - Tech Support Forum
Anyway like I said I eventually just did a clean install but the problem persists. Since the clean install I have not noticed and flash problems with chrome (as per the tech support forum thread) just random cpu spikes.
