I have been using Windows 7 Professional since its launch day. I am loving this OS until recently.
A week ago, my system began to stuttering during idle or gaming. Using a freeware to monitor system processing similar to Process tab of Task Manager, I noticed that dwm.exe is constantly using CPU by 10~15%. I waited for 1 hour, and it is still being processed. I changed to Basic or Classic Theme, and this process stopped like no more stuttering. I could keep using Basic Theme, but I would like to know what was a cause and how to fix this issue.
As I went troubleshooting, OS was running smoothly on Aero Theme for a couple of minutes. I have noticed this issue when I was watching a video and when I launched a game 'Battlefield 1'. Weird thing is that when I launched other game, 'Rainbow Six Siege', it was fine after played one match. But then a few minutes later, system started to stutter.
I have tried every solution that is related to this issue like uninstalling anti-virus programs, disabling all third-party services at msconfig, etc.. but no luck. I heard that it may be GPU driver issue, so I rolled back but no luck.
That is all I know of this situation. Is there a way to fix this issue beside keep using Basic or Classic Theme?
