The last week or so my computer has developed a strange issue.
Every few minutes I will be able hear something inside my laptop spinning up to full speed, then whatever I am doing will slow down. If I am gaming I end up with 1fps, if I am browsing the internet it just sort of freezes, cant type, cant click etc. If I am watching a tv show the picture will freeze although the audio will continue. After maybe 20 seconds or so it calms itself down and returns to normal.
I have performed numerous antivirus and spyware scans but found nothing untoward.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Or how to stop it?
Laptop is 1 year old. Vista, 4gig RAM, 2ghz Dual Core Intel, Nvidia Graphics Card.
