On a seemingly random basis (sometimes happens multiple times in a day, other times wont happen for a week). I get CPU lulls (or drops) every few seconds.
To explain further, I will be browsing the internet and then my mouse will start stalling every second or so, music will "skip" at the same time, etc. If I go to Task Manager I can even watch the CPU usage drop from say 24% to 1% then back to 24% and a few seconds later the exact same thing will happen.
I have 1gb pc3200 and a 2.8 P4. I have overclocked in the past, but have not been for quite some time and not while the problem has been occuring.
Any ideas what it might be? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
