Thank you for your input.

Need your tracert result.

Cannot say anything about computer spec (company secrets as I was told)

what does this mean? Cause my question is in regards to Video so I'd like to know the video card in the computer and amount of RAM you have cause I'm going to guess you don't have net lag at this point.

Tracert results? The tracert for yahoo.com is not good? I can give another tracert.

VideoRam: 1 GB
Ram: 8 GB

Sorry for the delay as I am posting this issue on 4 difference sites. I do not want to depend only on one site.

Umm... what video card do you have? Are you spyware/malware clean as in something not dragging resources or another app running at the same time? Anti-virus your using?

I do not have anti-virus software running. The computer is running very smooth. No slowdowns what so ever. I do have this random pause that I have no idea what is causing it. The laptop would make a click then there would be a 0.5 sec pause then the desktop would resume what it was doing. Rarely get blue screens. White and black screens are very rare. Give me another hour. I have to ask my brother about the video card. I know what it is but I just need confirmation on whether or not I can disclose that information. My brother did give me the new graphics driver for this laptop. I was running games without a graphics driver. I installed a physics standalone driver. What is weird is that I was running cod4 on another laptop that was running an Nvidia video card and was still having the same issue.

No antivirus software..so we don't know if the system is infested with malware or not. This leaves probabilities wide open....any type of behavior can happen.

Clicking noise...and then a pause. Combined with "laptop"...I'm leaning towards a hard drive beginning to fail. Hard drives in laptops generally have shorter life spans, due to "bumps", extra warm running environment.

I guess I'm having a hard time understanding why all the "James Bond" secrets of the video card info?? But playing on a laptop will be hard anyway unless its a gaming laptop. As for the Graphics driver..yeah that info would be nice you can find that by typing in "dxdiag" in the run bar and then click the Display tab and it should show a number that looks like this: 8.17.11.9562

the last 4 digits are the driver version 195.62

Perhaps since its a laptop you can give me a company name like Dell or HP and a model number so I can look up system specs?

I'd like like to ask if you could post a hijackthis log and maybe give malwarebytes anti-malware a run. I've included the links below for those.
