I have a Sony Vaio svs131290x that i bought in (I think) 2013.
specs are:
Intel core i5-3210M 2.5GHZ
12 GB ram
Nvidia Geforce GT 640M LE
Intel HD graphics 4000
PNY 240 GB SSD
About 3 months before I installed the new ssd I upgraded to windows 10 and had no problems with it. Then a few weeks ago I had a blue screen crash and almost lost all of my data. I was able to get my important files off and then basically reset the drive back to when I bought it with windows 8.
I decided I could use a faster hard drive and didn't want to risk having a defective drive so I bought the PNY ssd that is in the specs above and installed a clean copy of windows 10. drivers installed automatically and I installed my favorite programs and I was set.
I believe that It worked for a few days without any problems (I may be imagining this) but now whenever I watch a video online it will play for 5-10 minutes and then the entire computer becomes unbelievably slow and the video is crazy choppy. Even after I close the tab with the video it stays slow for another 5 minutes.
I have done all of the browser troubleshooting: clearing cache and history, disabling all extensions and plugins, etc... The problem is not the browser or internet connection. I also went through every device under device manager and checked for updated drivers. Some devices did install new drivers, including some graphics related things, but I still have this problem.
The problem even starts to occur without video, if I just have too many tabs open. If I have about 8 tabs open my computer will start to type slow.
I just reinstalled windows 10, and it still has this problem.
I never had these problems on my HDD. Any help would be really appreciated.
