Lag w/ XP

[Big Daddy]

Been getting alot of lag opening programs. It's really
apparent when playing games online. The game will slow
down, then catch back up to normal speed. Like a 'slinky
effect.' Anyone got any ideas to fine tune XP to run
normally?

Open task manager and see what program is hogging all the cpu cycles. This
is why you see the slow down, then catch up. Something is running that is
using all the cpu power. When it happens check task manager, processes tab
and see what it is. Usually it is some sort of spyware or virus. Once you
see what it is post back if you need more help with it or getting rid of it.
