General Computer Support / laptop "hiccups"
« on: August 14, 2014, 06:33:03 pm »
Howdy y'all.

Running Windows 7 64-bit on a Toshiba Qosmio laptop, and for the past 2 weeks or so, I've been experiencing what I can only describe as being "hiccups". That is , my computer lags for what appears to be a split second for every moment or so. It's more noticable and irritating when I'm listening to music or playing a game, where the audio pretty much stutters with some frequency. Aside from those examples, said hiccups also happen when I"m watching videos on youtube

I've done searches on other places, and I've also tried out a few possible solutions (Including a safe mode test). As of now, I cannot tell if this problem is being caused an issue with the hard drive, memory spikes on the RAM, or a hard-to-detect virus.

Feel free to ask for further technical details, and perhaps screenshots as well, and I'll do my best to provide them.
