Do you have anything that is downloading while your playing? Or internet open (Chrome, firefox, etc.)?

Get a new computer, this wont cut it no more:

You know, it could just be your computer. If its an old one you wont be able to play online good. I think you can buy a device thing for your hard drive that will help, but bad thing is i dont know what its called. I cant remember it.

dont have money for a new cpu but, a new memory stick sounds more realistic

Copy and paste from http://www.techterms.com/definition/defragment ...Defragmenting your hard disk is a great way to boost the performance of your computer. Though the term "defragment" sounds a little abrasive, it is actually a simple and helpful process. After all, a defragmented hard disk is a happy hard disk.

Adding and deleting files from your hard disk is a common task. Unfortunately, this process is not always done very efficiently. For example, when you delete a bunch of little files and add a new large file, the file may get broken up into mulitple sections on the hard disk. The computer will still read the newly added file as a single valid file, but the drive will have to scan multiple parts of the disk to read it. Because hard disk seek time is one of the most significant bottlenecks in a computer's performance, this can drag down your computer's speed quite a bit. If you have a ton of "fragmented" files on your hard disk, you might hear extra grinding, sputtering, and other weird noises coming from your computer.

You computer does not like having fragmented files any more than you do. This is why defragmenting your hard disk is such a good idea. When you start to hear extra grinding sounds, or your computer doesn't open files as quickly as it did before, it's time to defragment. With Windows, you can use the pre-installed Intel defragment program to defragment your hard disk. You can also use a commercial software program like Norton Utilities to defragment your hard disk more efficiently and with more options. For Mac users, a disk utility such as DiskWarrior or Tech Tool Pro is the only way to do it. If you use your computer daily, defragmenting your hard drive once a month should keep the fragment-fiends away.

*facepalm*

Right-click your C Drive and go to Properties. Under the tab Tools should be a thing called Defragment.

Oh, wait so if i did this, it wouldnt delete anything but bring everything closer to each other so it doesnt have to search around the disk for it? I just dont want to do it then have it delete most of my stuff.
