try this use f8 safe mode. see if the laptop in safe mode runs better. if it does run ccleaner...defragler...use msconfig and in the start up tab turn stuff off. just leave your anti virus on. scan with malware bytes and hitman pro. also if your anti virus is old update to one of the newer free ones. the last issues is system ram..at some point if your old laptop has 4g or less ram it time to put more ram in if you can. also run hdtune and check the hard drive health. the last issue is cpu thermal paste may be drying out causing the cpu and rig to throttle back.

You do not have allot of memory so some swapping of data from memory to hard drive is going to happen for sure.

[strike]Performance[/strike] Resource monitor is built into Windows and may allow you to see just what is using the hard drive.

If you are worried about drive health, Please try something like CrystalDiskInfo to see the drives current health status.

It may be worth looking at the S.M.A.R.T attributes section as well, but yes it looks ok.

Does the resource monitor(no clue why I called it performance monitor, my bad) show anything interesting for you(Start search for resource monitor). Select Disk
