Full StoryThis is the next bad news (for me) step in the progress of finding why my 1 yo laptop Gateway W8.1 is sluggish. This has been visited here and elsewhere focused on possible problems buried in Firefox. Well this morning as part of my now usual step I watched the CPU performance and found my 1.4 GHz Dual Core computer maxed out (flat lined) at 55% and the variable speed CPU was operating at 0.77 GHz, i.e., 55% speed. Given the historic problem here has been the CPU running at the 90+% CPU it seems that over load is still present but the CPU is on "strike" or at least "slow down".
Is there something that can be "clicked" by me that would make the CPU run at half speed?
