Hi, I bought a laptop last year, its a HP Pavilion DV7 core i72630qm with 6gb of Ram and a mobility radeon hd5000. Currently using win7
I mainly used it for web development and web surfing, but from 4-5 months ago it lags in everything I do. Sometimes its really annoying because it lags only when doing basic stuff, for example im working in excel and click a button, it waits 2-3 seconds then respond, or select a cell and the same 2-3 seconds just to change the selection.
I am not sure what could be causing this problem, so I made some basic research and already try this:
- Defrag the disc
- Run memtest, no problems showed up
- Check virus and spyware. (with AVG and Spybot search and destroy)
- Run hdd regenerator, no problems shown
- Drivers update
I also installed ubuntu and the problem shows up there too, havent try too much but it also lags when clicking something or writing and url in the browser.
Any ideas what could be happening and how to fix it or at least detect whats the problem.
Thanks in advance.
PD hope the category i choose is the right one.
