As the title says, whenever i install, or extract something on my computer, everything seems to lag horrendously and often freeze. This started happening when i re-installed windows 7 onto my computer because i had way to many programs installed that i couldn't uninstall and almost no hard drive space left.
So after that, i re-reinstalled windows 7, with the option thats not upgrade xD i also formatted my hard drive. But it still happens, my computer runs perfectly when not installing anything, but as soon as it does, it lags like crazy. I know some may say "well just dont use your computer when installing" but when i extract a small file of only around 500 megabytes it takes about 3 hours. . . i really dont want that.
Anyways here are my computer statistics :
AMD x64 5000+ x2 2.6ghz
4.5 gb ram
360gb hard drive
nvdia geforce 9500 gt oc2 1gb
i have a gt5654 gateway if that helps o.o
Thanks in advance ^_^
edit : is it possible this is due to my hard drive being on the verge of death? idk its kind of old ( 2-3 years )and it was just making some really weird noises o.o
