So anyway, I have a Toshiba A105 Sattelite computer, with Windows XP as my operating system. Recently, my computer has started to act up, and now, whenever I play music, games, or movies, it keeps freezing every few seconds (Stuttering, as I call it), making these actions near impossible. I have made no drastic changes, so I'm assuming it's not my video/audio, because I've never had this problem before. When I first boot up my computer the screen that says "Windows XP" with the blue loading box under it takes much longer than usual to load, and whenever I sign in, the startup sound takes about 30 seconds, and sounds really choppy. Does anyone have any advice?
