Hello there, I've just put this system together today:

Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 (2.4GHz 1066MHz) Socket 775 L2 8MB Cache (2x4MB (4MB per core pair)) Retail Boxed Processor
Western Digital WD5000AAKB 500GB Hard Drive 7200rpm 16MB Cache - OEM
NEC AD7170S Serial ATA 18x18 DVD±RW Dual Layer ReWriter (Black) - OEM
Asus P5K Intel P35 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
Corsair HX 520W ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant PSU (CMPSU-520HXUK)
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU Cooler (Socket 775)
Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 PC2-6400C4 800MHz Dual Channel Kit (BL2KIT12864AA804)
Akasa Eclipse 62 Aluminium Case - No PSU


Basically, it's all working well, apart from the fact, whenever I install something the mouse lags a hell of a lot and it's really bugging me. Does anyone have any ideas?

Cheers!
 
Could it be this, mine only seems to lag under some light pressure load (on the CPU), so I messed around with Affinity and it seemed to work, only problem is, whenever I install something it starts lagging again:S
 
I was just checking the insides of my system, and it turns out the Harddirve is IDE (Chunky cabling), and I can't believe I didn't notice it before!

Could this be the issue? Because I seem to get the lag whenever the Harddrive is busy. It's the master btw, as I only hve 1 drive! Also, I'm using my X800GTO2 for the time being, but I don't think that's the problem.

Thanks again for any help!
 
Tried that mate thanks though, still nothing, I'm thinking it's a hard drive issue, just waiting for some replies about that.

Basically, I've got a WD 500gb IDE hard drive, with no SATA-II. The only sata connection is the DVD-RW.

UPDATE

Turns out it was the SATA drivers causing all the problems! Finally sorted it, thanks fot the help guys!
