Hey guys, So i just got this laptop today. So there's nothing on it that could have been causing this problem.
The laptop is very slow and / or unresponsive (as in one or the other or both) when connected to the internet, There is absolutely no reason for this as i have completely disabled Syncing with accounts such as OneDrive and even removed a few programs that would serve no purpose to me / the system.
The computer that my grandma has does NOT have this problem at all so i know damn well its not our internet, Her computer runs Windows 7. Which i much prefer but i don't have a legal license for it so im sticking to Windows 8.1 that came preinstalled.
As well just cause i feel the need to ask this, Why does my laptop constantly stay around the 100% CPU usage? There's no reason for that either. There's 4GB of DDR3 ram and 3.89GB is useable... There's absolutely no reason for this amount of CPU usage and for it to be as slow as it is when its connected to the internet.
There's no viruses or malware or anything.
When it's disconnected from the internet it is EXTREMELY fast and i fell in love with that speed when its disconnected. But as soon as i connect it to the internet then its slow and unresponsive.
Thanks guys.
