While using Windows XP everything freezes for a split second about every or every other second. This is really annoying especially when playing audio or video. It just recently started.
I have uninstalled programs that I don't use and defragged the hard drive with the hopes that it might make a difference, but it didn't. I have also changed the power supply but no luck. When I use Ubuntu on this same laptop, everything works fine, so I guess it has to be something with Windows XP. I have googled a lot and have not found anyone who has been able to resolve this issue.
I have a Dell Vostro 1500 notebook running Windows XP, 2GB ram, Intel Core 2 Duo processor.
Any suggestions and help would be greatly appreciated on this.
Thanks.
