That model came out over 10 years ago so it may just be showing it's age. Software is getting more demanding as time goes on.

It cold also be that your Windows operating system has just gotten bloated over the years. One thing you could try is to restore the laptop to it's "Factory Default Settings" and see if that makes a difference.

Restoring Lenovo T61 to factory settings?

1. Press the blue thinkvantage button during initial startup of the laptop.
2. Then select restore to factory condition.
3. Choose full factory restore.

This would only work if the T61 still have the recovery partition intact.
