Hey all
Not sure what it is, but recently my pc has been having random slow downs.
I mean, even as I type this (im not that fast a typer lol) but it freezes and then catches up with itself.
I'm running a e6700 at 3ghz and 4gb of ram.
My kaspersky occasionally as a mechanical cog next to it when the freeze occurs, but it also happens randomly too.
I've also noticed when playing games I get a freeze then like a 2fps for about 6 seconds and then everything catches up.
Any ideas what it could be? I've not had this problem before, and the pc is freshly formatted with over 75% free.
Hard drive is a samsung f2 1tb.
could it be anything of windows 7 features such as defrag etc running?
all help appriciated.
