![]() Without thinking, I opened my video editor to try out what I learned, and it happened again. For instance, I was watching a tutorial on Youtube through my FireFox browser, with just two tabs open (I was scared it would fry my CPU to do more, this was before the temp test). When I opened bigger programs, it would happen too. After looking online it seemed to be a CPU problem, but the process percentages in all categories were going crazy while I was running web browsers (I also checked my CPU temps, they were fine). After 10 seconds it got back to speed, but because the task manager was blank during the slow down it was not too obvious at first to what was going on. Then boom, a huge slow down, task manager would pop up as a blank screen, slowed my computer down, and lagged out my mouse. I first noticed it happening when I couldn't scroll down on a big page, so I opened task manager. The programs themselves run fine, but then web browsers would eat up all power. I saw sudden slow downs, in really strange ways. Then after some updates for Windows 10 (at least I think so) this happened. Normally my computer can run a lot of stuff at once, opening a bunch of things at the same time too with ease. Ok, so this is what the slow down acts like. I was surprised to say the least, because my computer had been fine with it before. I reinstalled everything one by one, finishing with Webroot. I eventually caved in to a full system reset, which I really didn't want to do. I ran in safety mode, and it ran flawlessly. ![]() I then ended all processes that were not essential for my PC to run, still no change. I was unable to find any significant reason that my PC was acting slow. I scanned everything, system files, bios, drivers, malware and corruption issues, and then processes. I did everything, and I mean every diagnostic thing I could think of. I have been working on my computer for the last three days trying to figure out what was slowing it down.
