Yah i have no clue. You could always try malwarebytes to see if there is any malware on the system. Clean windows install should fix it otherwise but that's a damn pain if you have a bunch of data 

I uninstalled this program called CAM https://camwebapp.com/ and that fixed it!

So when ever I launch Task Manager whether; CRTL+ SHIFT+ ESC, right click taskbar and click Task Manager, or CRTL+ ALT+ DEL and click Task Manager, it causes FPS drops, mouse lags out, and it stops responding. It is set to normal refresh speed and it is the more view than just open programs. I am on Windows 10 Home 1607, can't update to creators.

What CPU and RAM? 

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Hmm seems strange, experienced a similar problem with my first gen Atom laptop, but not even that was to this extent. Sorry but not much I can help to be honest, maybe thermals?
