well the problem is not the fps being slow or low it is that my computer is not at its full speed for anything. everything will stop responding in around 5-10 minutes and that never happens like that normally. Its like the computer is not performing like it should I updated everything. when it stops responding it can take around 10-15 minutes to start responding again. After it starts responding again then it will stop responding again the processor is a Intel 2 core Duo T9600 2.88GHz or around there i did not type everything that is what it pretty much said. and the ram is 4 GB and my Graphics card is a NVIDIA GTX 260m. I know some stuff form computers and fixed this before but I can not this time so...

In that case, run an ePSA diagnostic and HDtune benchmark to check for hardware errors.
If nothing comes up, it could be a software problem. Try a clean boot as explained here. Let me know if the issue persists.
