Hello.
Around Christmas I began having problems in all my games, where it would slow down and start jerking every couple of minutes. I did everything I could think of, ran every virus scan and registry fix under the planet, performed a disk check, defragmented my hard drive, whatever. I don't seem to have any viruses and my event logs in "Administrative Tools" reveal nothing out of the ordinary. In all appearances, my system runs fine, but whenever I play a game, any game, it screws up. It's most noticeable in energy-intensive games such as CS:Source, Oblivion, and Half-Life 2, but even in games like Neverwinter Nights I have troubles. I have a laptop with a:
Intel Pentium M Processor 2 GHz
1 GB Ram
Nvidia Geforce Go 6600, 256 MB
Hell, I've even reinstalled the OS, and it's still there, the ubiquitous little devil. Anybody have any ideas?
