Well in the past 3 months I've been having great difficulites with my computer.
First off I get the occasional lag when my CPU usage goes to 100. For example it could happen at any time such as when i go to click on an Icon it will lag for 5 or 6 seconds then open.
Yes I did reformat and it came back gradually.
In Online games about every other minute or so I get the lag in game and recieve 4-5 frames per second pretty much freezing me for a second or two.
I check in my task manager to see what is taking up all this CPU usage and it basically tells me it is whatever program i am running at the time. Say i am running a game it will say the game is taking up 100% of my CPU or if i am using AIM it was that is using 100%.
Comp specs:
Pent 4 2.4ghz
80gb hd
1024 ddr ram
ti4200 g4
Any help or advice is welcome
p.s. I suck at the internet
