Solve : Several problems with my computers? |
|
Answer» Problem 1: (Windows 7) This has only been happening recently in the past 2 days. I'm having a problem where my computer would get random lag spikes every 30 seconds or minute. When these lag spikes happen, FPS drops significantly and sound begins to stutter. Problem 1: (Windows 7) This has only been happening recently in the past 2 days.

Let's look at this. Lag is common in network activity over the internet. What kind of internet do you have? DSL? Cable? Fiber optic? Are you playing an on-line game when the lag happens? How old is your modem and or router? Do others share your internet connection? What kind of AV protection do you ave? This is a lack of responsiveness. It is not lag. I would perform full checks on all the hard disk drives in question and perform standard maintenance.Quote from: BC_Programmer on March 01, 2014, 08:38:43 PM This is a lack of responsiveness. It is not lag. When you mention, "full checks," how exactly do you mean this? I am not extremely computer savvy, but I do TRY to maintain my computer by deleting unnecessary programs and compressing the hard drive occasionally.

If you right-click on a drive in My Computer and select Properties, there should be a "Check Now" button on the Tools tab. That will allow you to perform a disk check. |
