I don’t know if it’s a virus, but suddenly everything lags
Hi guys,
I am not sure what is happening, but something is terribly wrong. Yesterday night we were streaming a TV series, and all of a sudden the video started lagging. As I tried to just press stop on the video player, I noticed that anything I would try to click on implied a huge delay. So I shut down Chrome, deleted cookies, history etc.. but just trying to go on google.com made my computer think for couple of unusual seconds.
I have Avast and the scan did not reveal anything. I also checked the drive, updated windows, reboot several times and even uninstalled and reinstalled the graphic card using the device manager, nothing showed any improvement.
It’s like all of a sudden I have a computer from the 90s! I loved the 90s, but just not the computer speed that goes with it!
I am not sure where to look now. Is it an issue with the graphic card, a virus, a driver issue, I have no idea.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Kim
