Hello everyone,
The Problem:
The whole computer hangs every few seconds due to what I think is the system process. The laptop I'm using is quite old in terms of technology, but I'm mainly wanting it just to view Youtube and browse the web so nothing that it shouldn't be able to handle. Hopefully you can tell by this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLB6HM9-0nU
When the computer is idle, this is the performance graph of the CPU. Each time it spikes, the whole computer freezes:
What I've Done So Far:
I've reset the whole laptop to fresh as it was in quite a mess.
I've updated any drivers that need updating.
I'm currently in a clean boot environment.
I've disabled the realtek sound and DVD drive as that was something that I've seen that could cause pauses.
I've run the following commands:
SFC /scannow
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
I've searched the internet as much as possible and this is where I'm at so hopefully you ladies and gents can help me out getting this laptop to run as smooth as a old laptop can.
