Unlogical Problem

Ok so I have Vista on my laptop, and it have been running somewhat smothly
for about a year. Now for some unknown reason my wireless internet have
started lagging a lot.

The reason why I'm posting here, is because (and here's the unlogic problem)
my internet only works (as in not lagging but still running quite slow) when
I set the power surply to "Power saving" - If I set it to "High Usage" or
"Balanced" it starts lagging. I play online games, and every 20sec or so the
game/internet goes very slowly, and then resumes to normal after 10secs or so.

I'm thinking of having someone take a look at my laptop, but first wanted to
post here to hear if this is a known problem, and if there is any solutions?

Even so, I will greatly appreciate any suggestions, cause I'm running low on
ideas. Please go ahead and ask for more info if you need it too.

Thanks :)
 
Hi,

The first, and most obvious, step is to check the system for malware. Why?
Because of the increased activity when online, it's a pretty solid sign of a
problem. This is best done in Safe mode with updated antispyware and
antivirus software where the bugs are less likely to be active.
