Ok, so heres my problem, before (about 2-3 weeks ago) my pc started to lag out and music files jumped and jittered all about the place even when windows media player was the only program active. then when I was playing camelot (LAB CLIENT) it jumps every 3 seconds (as in im getting decent fps for 2 secs then 0 for 1 then repeat).
Now in my blissfull ideas I decided to format the PC and restore it to its store bought greatness then installed AVGfree and AdAware and gave a full scan. reinstalled DAoC and music files and all was good for a time. recently about a week ago I figured I might as well bring the pc up to date with the windows service pack2 update (its a old restore disc so was windows xp before any updates). so i went and installed that and updated windows fully. Now my problem is back wit hthe same things.
I dont thing its the pc - I mean its not top notch, but has duel logged TOA for ages with no probs and can run one LAB client np(or ust to) the specs are a 2200+AMD Athalon 768ram and a geforce6 6200 AGP card, as I said not best but enough to play this.
So my question to all of ye smart lads is... what the feck is happening? was there some update that I got (used windows updater, so no crappy fake ones afaik) that is causing problems with other ppl? or is there any asslicking processes that I turn off that will improve anything? I would have formatted it again, but apparently that aint working
Any advice is much appricated!
Oh and I go into ctrl+alt+delete and turn off a load of processes and stuff before I go in and that seems to help a bit, only started that tho after the prob started :/
