I have just gotten windows 7 home premium and after a quick update and a restart, everything goes insanly slow.
Like when i open firefox, gotta wait like 2 minutes everytime i click something since it goes "program not responding"
I have no idea what this is
(did a clean install)
This happends in intervals, i get about 5 seconds non laggy/freezing

Press windows key.

Press enter.
Is it hard? No.

Do you have many programs starting up when you log in?
[editline]10:04AM[/editline]
Or just a lot running in the background?

When i dont do anything its fine, but as soon as i press any window it goes haywire
bad drivers?
Perhaps, wheres the best place to find the newest?
depends on the hardware, just google search " 'hardware name here' drivers"
Just installed Nvidia driver update, any other drivers that could be updated?

Make sure you install your motherboard drivers, the included ones with Windows 7 while adequate, could be slowing your system down. For instance, I updated my NIC drivers from the Win7 default and my performance increased 40% (not kidding).

this. since there are often no drivers for CPU and Ram, (which are other major performance related pieces of hardware.)
Also, look for an HDD driver, might help a little bit as well.

You install the drivers from within Windows 7, you don't want to upgrade the BIOS unless you absolutely have to.
I really need help to find a driver for ASUS M2N-E Socket AM2

That is getting slightly annoying.
Anyway before I kept getting that it doesn't appear that they have any Windows 7 drivers for that motherboard. You can try finding drivers for the individual parts (NIC drivers off the specific manufacturer's site for example).
Dont understand what you mean about individual parts.
He means find drivers for the different things in your PC.
EG: Network Card, Graphics Card, Sound Card, Hard Disk, Motherboard.
Well i got Network card and graphics, the other i cant find.
Because of Asus's bad website

Fuck me if i need a new motherboard
You could tell us what the error is by going to the Event Viewer.
there is no errors, every program just goes "not responding" at random intervals.
"...by going to the Event Viewer."
