I have had the exact same problem the last few weeks.

Click control+alt+delete and click task list. Then click the "processes" tab on top. Then, click the semi-tab "cpu" TWICE which is located under the tabs on top and see if any processes are running more than usual. The There might be EXPLORER at 99 cpu or IEXPLORER at a similar cpu. If so, right click the name of the process, and click "end proccess." DO NOT END PROCESS ON ANY PROCESS THAT SAYS "SYSTEM" under the semi-tab of "User Name." Hope this helps
