Continues random "not responding" in all applications

[alex3003]

My problem is that I keep on getting my application windows freezing and getting back on in few seconds back. so after looking at the task manager i found out that they get "not responding" status continuously, without a reason; and then come alive back again after a second. this is very annoying. i tried everything including changing my skin and upgrading my drivers; but none helped.
i uploaded a video on youtube showing the problem. here is the link : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57sk2o3KIuI

What is the application you are running in the vid it seems to be not responding alot.

Make sure your chipset drivers are installed. Check the device manager and make sure no hardware has a yellow exclamation point next to it. Also check your event viewer for any errors.

The video looks like some type of CAD software. Are you sure you have enough memory to support it? Also, if you have changed the size of your page file or eliminated it all together, you may want to set it back to windows managed.

I solved it guys.. it is dwm.exe that causes the problem. I stopped the damn service and now the problem is over.

No offense, but stopping dwm.exe is not a solution if you have to do this over and over. Try turning off Aero Glass (Switch to Classic Mode), or lowering your screen resolution. Is UAC on? If not, turn it on.

But I was in Classic mode when even this thing started happening mate; I use classic all the time. I used administrative tools > services to locate "Desktop Window Manager Session Manager" and disabled it. it fixes the problem for ever.
