Alright. Booted to knoppix 5.1.1 and noticed no lagging in text. I
also put in a disc into the computer and the lag was still present.
Sill at a loss for ideas...

If you do control-alt-delete and bring up Task Manager, do
any of the processes suddenly "spike" in either the percentages
or on the performance chart ? You aren't likely to catch it
that way, but you might get lucky. Try typing, and then watching
the Task Manager.

Yeah, I've tried doing that and nothing jumps whenever it pauses.

You could try a couple of other things:
1) Boot into safe mode and see if it still happens.
2) click start>>run and type msconfig and then click startup tab and
disable the whole lot of the startup group. Then reboot and see if you
get the same problem. If not, then something in startup is causing the
lag.

BIG BREAKTHROUGH!
After testing the laptop in battery and on AC, I've learned that it
only does the text hiccup whenever I'm using the battery. What could
possibly be causing this?
I've also booted into knoppix while on battery power and it types
fine. I can't find anything out of place when I run process explorer.

Then that is the "Power Management" policy. The laptop tries to save
more power when running on battery. But it should still be smooth
though. It could be that your laptop is missing a patch.
Read the following thread *carefully* . Go through the whole thread,
to read feedback from users who have installed stuff. Apparently
it is common for WinXP installs to not have all the patches and
CPU drivers etc.

You need to ask yourself what kind of man is it that for years
espoused venom all across USENET believing he is an Internet
policeman. He has killed off group after group. Here is the answer:
1. He is the kind of man who tried to hide behind an alias because he
was not man enough to say who he was.
2. He was tracked down because he tried to sell a computer several
years ago (in total violation of his own belief that you should not
sell on USENET) using his e-mail address lshaping @hotmail.com. From
the ad, it became apparent he is Mark Orrin Bender, living at 509

3. Being a legitimate business person involved in the computer
industry the past 24 years I decided to have a background check run on
him due to his vicious lies and innuendo. The background check found
that this brave man who now says he can defend himself against me has
a history of two arrests for domestic violence. I guess he thinks
beating up helpless domestic partners qualifies him as a tough guy.
The arrest records and civil records are below my name.
4. In the case of MAX WHITMAN & HARRIET WHITMAN he was sued into
poverty and is now living in a depressed neighborhood. His neighbors
call him El Gatero Loco, the Crazy Cat Man as he wanders the
neighborhood feeding stray cats.

windows power savings is messing with you - i have the same machine with the
same upgrade and it did the same thing. vista or xp? the speed of the cpu
drops and the screen dims when on battery power as part of the power
management scheme by default. it wasn't noticable so much under xp, but
then on a whim and a dare i installed vista ultimate on that machine and
even with all of the drivers in place you still see it bouncing around from
time to time even on a/c power. lesson learned - check the power scheme

power options - you will have to make it think it is on a/c power all the
time - it will considerably lower your batter life though. turn off all of
the savings features and the cpu will start to think it is plugged in all
the time. it worked on this one - and in vista, you have to tell it maximum
performance or that particular machine will do the same thing!
