Hi...
A bit of a problem...hoping for some direction.

I'm getting steady constant lag during video games, America's Army and TrackMania. It pulses for a split second about every 4-5 seconds. You could set your watch to it. It's not an internet issue as it happens off line as well. I started by ending all unessential processes. Didn't help. Did full anti-virus and adware scan. Nuttin'. Reinstalled directx and nvidia drivers. Nada. Un-overclocked everything. Nope. Nothing new on my system. My system is, i admit, a bit dated, but i've been running these games on it for a long time with no issues.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

See if doing a clean boot helps.

Tried a clean boot. No luck. Still lags just the same.

Which O/S are you using, and what procedure did you use to clean boot it?
