I receive Aero Lag when opening and closing windows in Windows 7

original title: Aero Lag when opening and closing windows in Windows 7

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK since we've got the ball rolling here, I am editing this to better reflect what is going on. The below links are just a few out of hundreds of post you will find on the internet about this Aero Lag. Some offer workarounds and some don't. I just Googled Aero Lag and this was from the first page.

If you have the same problem, please provide:

What type of graphics card you have.
What kind of drivers are you using (Win7 preinstalled or manufacturer's drivers)
Was your version of Win7 an update or clean install.
What motherboard you have.

From the sounds of it, Microsoft is looking for a fix.

I also ask for a forum admin to make this a sticky as many people are experiencing this problem.

**Have solved my problem withAeor lag.**Reinstall Windows 7 U64 twice with new/old driver.

Replaced Gforce 8800GTX with Gforce GTX480.

Have spent many days on this problem without a solution.

But here is a very simple solution that works for me.

I removed the USB extension cablefor my CreativeHS-1200WirelessUSB Gaming Headset.

Aero lags when Iused USB extension cable and headset charging.

Without USB extension cable, everything is fine.

So it think itis a voltagedrop in the USB extension cable,causes the system to lag. ?

Hope it can help.

Sincerely,

Dennis Psilander

While I do not have lag when opening and closing windows, however at random times, when dragging windows around it lags, it does not happen all the time, but it randomly presents itself - as if there is some overall Aero performance issues.

I am running this on a Lenovo T61p, running an nVidia Quadro 570M the raitings are as follows:

Processor: 6.4

RAM: 5.9

Graphics: 4.3

Gaming: 5.8

HDD: 5.9

Thank you,

I also have this problem with Windows 7. My sister has Windows Vista and the difference is noticeable when opening and closing windows. It just ruins the whole Aero experience in Windows 7 :(

I dont understand why this hasnt been fixed already!!
