You have a memory leak in a Driver. The most common one that comes to mind right now is the Killer E2200 network card
 


what can i do to fix it? :)
 


update your drivers would be a good start
 


doing that in device manager? i clicked on everything and said drivers are up to date all though the disc i installed the msi drivers was 6months old but what else can i do to update them?
 


You must download the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website
 


do i just click download then run the setup thing and do i need to uninstall other driver?
 


Yeah, just install it on top

How have you actually determined that you are experiencing the side effects of a memory leak, and not just overdoing it with Photoshop? It could be that 16 GB is not enough for your usage needs.

The amount of memory listed under Committed on the screen shot of your Task Manager makes it look as though your system is hitting the page file a bit much.

You really haven't adequately described what you mean by "lags." Are you meaning that, LoL lags in game, or that launching new programs takes longer than it should, or that things stutter, such as audio playback?
 


It's right there in his second posted image. 5.2GiB non-paged pool = driver memory leak. The Killer E2200 is the most common one by far, hence why I guessed it right away
 


pinhedd your the best just remember that
