So I start my computer up and after my registry scan completes I see a blue circle over my internet connection. I run the trouble shooter and it says my local connection cannot be identified, unplug my router for ten seconds ad run trouble shooter again. Ok, it works but I notice as I scroll my mouse across the screen it has a "hiccup" every now and then. Hmm. So I go to open either a file or the internet and the computer freezes. After a while it finally unlocks but I cannot access anything on the internet. Run malware and anti virus scans and nothing found in both regular mode and Safe Mode. Bumped my virtual memory up and still nothing. I was finally able to open COD 4 and noticed in my lag meter a lag spike every now and then that was consistent with the mouse drag hiccup timing. Read somewhere that it might be my network driver and to uninstall all of it and reboot. haven't tried that yet. Also, noticed the freezing happens in safe mode too, please tell me it is not my hard Drive dying.... Only way I was able to get on here (besides phone) was to run in Safe Mode Networking enabled. Still freezes when I try to switch to a different file.
