New computer extremely slow in windows 7

[Rokas2260]

Hi, basically recently I been distracted with my computers lag, like it's getting worse and worse.. For example in performance information and tools, it says in Performance issues, that a driver causes to start sleep mode slowly, that the program causes to start windows slowly, change desktop visuals to improve performance, and so on.... In this new computer that I bought (built it myself actually) How can it have bad performance and so on ? Could it be because of an old HDD ? The booting it self takes a good few mins now from how it was a different older PC... And even today after sleeping mode some programs started to crash even when trying to launch them again... And after I rebooted my PC the windows explorer stopped working ? Just everything is crashing I noticed.. Could it mean I need to hurry on a new HDD ? (I am buying at the moment a SSD which is: Kingston 480GB SSDNOW UV400 SATA 3 2.5 : And I have at the moment Hitachi HDS721010CLA332)

when you moved windows did you wipe and reload it. if not you may have 2 set of drivers. boot into safe mode and remove all driver. make sure there one anti virus running. reinstall intel or amd chipset drivers and intel mei drivers.

No I reinstalled my windows so everything is clean and newly installed and I kept games on my d disk, (I have c and d disks) c is free and has barely any space taken... I have a antivirus because I think of viruses but its clean so I delete it

Did you reinstall windows recently? Have you installed all windows updates?

Just a guess - but is 1 core of your CPU constantly at 100% usage?
(that would be at least 12.5% usage all time for i7 cpu)

Yea few months back.. I do not install windows updates because they are problems to me.. and I don't think I have that one cpu at 100% Everything seems to be working fine, nothing is using much anything...

You got yourself standard windows update problem for fresh win7 installs.
Solution is to download KB3112343 and install it manually. Stop and disable windows update service before installing it (enable after install/restart).

You'll be able to install windows updates after that.

Dude what the hell... I enabled windows update, it started installing and after restart it droped blue screen and windows repair is not helping either, and neither does recovery... I'm reinstalling windows atm... I'm mever ever doing windows updates again... Windows cancer...

Something's wrong with software configuration of your PC, if updates cause BSOD, or perhaps some driver update did that.

You roll back with System Restore (can launch it from windows installation media).

If you're reinstalling, then might as well do it right this time:
Install Win7 sp1;
Install KB3112343;
Install all the updates (should be >250).

Hey if I may join in the question, I see he has a i7 6700K, I'm planning on bying a i7 6700, but with the recent annoucement from MS about cutting support for 7 and 8 for the Skylake series is it even possible to use those sysems with new configs? Sorry if its a dumb question but I'm pretty cofused with this.

on july 29 the free upgrade for going from windows 7 to 10 will end. the issue with windows 7 is it missing the newer chipset drivers for the new mb. there only few ways to fix that. one is use a 3 party program called 7lite to make a new updated windows 7 iso that adds the missing drivers. the other is if your lucky to get windows 7 to boot from the installer media to do an advance install and install the drivers then. the last that works right now but may be removed is booting from windows 10 media and using windows 7 or 8 key. if ms removes this then any old keys wont work any more.
