  1. Lagging when using browsers?


    I usually use Chrome and I'm getting lags that are starting to get annoying. I don't usually get input lag but it happening more often. Sometimes I can't move my mouse and have to wait 2-5 seconds to see everything catch up. The mouse lag I described can happen in intervals of a few minutes especially when I multitask. This isn't browser lag because my mouse can't do anything anywhere. I like to surf the web and watch videos. In total I only used max 8GB of my 16GB RAM. I bought a new NVMe SSD recently and it in general made my PC faster but I still get lags. Could this be a GPU problem? I also realized sometimes there's a whoopin 8 second lag to close the browser. If there were no lag everything would be perfect for my usage. The lag is increasing more than usually thus why I'm posting this. Thanks.

    :)

    Random lag spikes

    Hi,

    We would like to know more about your lag issue:

    • What browser are you using when you experience a lag?
    • Does the lag occur in a particular game?

    In the meantime, we suggest you run the System Maintenance troubleshooter. Here are the steps:

    • Press Windows Key + X.
    • Click on Control Panel.
    • Select Troubleshooting.
    • On the left pane, click on View All.
    • Click on System Maintenance to run the troubleshooter.

    Looking forward to your response.

  4. Lagging when using browsers?

    Unable to set default browser

    • Does this issue happens while you try to set other browser as default too or is it specific to specific browser?

    Any browser.

    Already did the steps you suggested. It's some kind of bug where it's impossible to set a default browser at all.

    I heard elsewhere from one other user
    that it seems to be a problem with upgrading to 10 on the SP3. Sounds very specifc.
