My PC for some reason when I sometimes want to boot it up, it will boot up super choppy and laggy like as if the RAM and CPU are being used at 100% both, and also I have to always hit the reset bottom on my case to sometimes fix this and keep doing that until it doesnt boot it up so slow, I don't understand why this is happening, I have taken good care of the computer and run scans on it to make sure I don't have some sort of virus or program that is doing this, but I don't get it, when I open up the Task Manager I notice that sometimes a program called "system interrupts" is eating a lot of RAM or CPU, or Service Host: Local Service, something like that, both of those programs seem to destroy my RAM/CPU. Any help would be nice. Thank you

Cover the basics with a malware and virus scan. Also take a look at msconfig to see what is trying to load at windows startup. Kill anything not absolutely necessary and see if that at least helps.

Its often a a bad or inappropriate driver. Make sure everything is up to date, especially the chipset drivers.

Hmmm, Im not sure what you mean exactly, and by driver to you mean for a program or like my HDD? My friend also told me could be a defective mobo, but Im not sure about that.

That sounds like a driver issue. Go into Windows Update and click on "View update history" and tell us if any device drivers have been updated.

On the 25 of January, it installed the graphics driver for Intel HD Graphics 4600. Check in Control Panel to see if it is installed. If it is, uninstall it and reboot into your bios. Make sure the setting for the primary video adapter is set to PCI express or add-in, not integrated. Then, reboot. Have you installed any new programs or devices right before the issues started?

Did all of what you said, and this started when I upgraded my mobo, GPU and CPU.

what happens if you do a clean install on the operating system?

 

did you try a cmos reset

I already did when I switched from a HDD boot up to a SSD boot up recently, but the problem still happens. 

and no I haven't I heard it resets your mobo settings and things like that. Would I lose anything important?

cmos reset will hurt nothing. It sets verything back to "stock". good and cheap thing to do if you have an odd problem.

 

Disconnect your HD and boot with only the SSD hooked up......... think I may have already put that in my previous list of things to do.

I second the advice to clear the CMOS. Also, check for BIOS updates.

after you installed the operating system you installed the motherboard drivers off the disc?

 

then you went to windows updates over and over until no more were available?

 

then you opened the device manager to see if anything needed to be updated? that would include the cpu......... even if it looks like it doesn't need something. You have a lot of work ahead of you. Open stuff up and try updating anyways.

Check for BIOS updates from your motherboard manufacturer.
