    PC is lagging in all applications even though memory & CPU utilization is low


    My windows PC - Asus Zenbook - Specs: i7 - 1165G7, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD, 14 inch screen.The first year of usage, everything worked perfectly, but somewhere along the way it started working terribly slow. Especially when I am on a call on Zoom / Teams / Meet and I share my screen, the laptop becomes next to unusable due to the way it lags.The problem becomes worse when I use an external display. Here is the screenshot of my task manager during a general workflow. Please let me know if you need any further details.

    'System and compressed memory' on ASUS G75VY notebook load CPU always on 16%

    thank you for your reply!

    here what I did:

    1. disabled non-microsoft services, disabled all applications in startup list

    result: after restart "system and compressed memory" still gain 17% CPU

    2. ran PC into safe mode ( just to see what happens )

    result: CPU load is 0% for "system and compressed memory"

    3. ran PC in normal mode

    result: CPU load is 0% for "system and compressed memory"

    as we can see from step 1, the problem probably is not in applications ?

    what would you suggest in this case ?

    looking forward for your answer

    cpu utilization high after november upgrade to 1511

    I have 3 systems running this build. The only one with noticeably high CPU utilization is a Surface 3 with 2 GB of RAM. Even with no apps running, is almost unusable because of the lag caused by this issue. Hard to believe Microsoft has not seen this
    problem on other low memory systems.

    PC is lagging in all applications even though memory & CPU utilization is low

    Low on memory???

    Hi,





    Programs using too much memory and possible infection are a few of the factors that can trigger a Low on memory warning in Windows 10. We suggest running the
    System Maintenance Troubleshooter. This will automatically detect issues that might affect system performance. Follow the steps below:



    • Type Troubleshooting in Search.
    • Select Troubleshooting Control Panel.
    • Click View all.
    • Click System Maintenance.
    • Hit Next.


    Let us know if you need additional assistance.
