Heya peeps, over the last couple of days i have noticed my system "lagging" and its affecting all programs I use. The CPU cycles seem to jump suddenly from 2% idle to between 44-100% every few seconds and its driving me crazy. My first thoughts are possibly due to heat from this hot weather mebbe expanding the components etc? What do other people think? I am 99% sure its not a virus as I scan daily. I thought I heard a fan inside the machine "clip" every time there was a spike but I wasnt sure if this was the GFX card fan or the CPU fan. Has anyone else experienced something similar to general PC lag - my system in general is slower to respond and load programs etc. I can't watch movies etc on it now as it stutters and its driving me crazy.
Any thoughts appreciated!
