You might want to look at a couple of things.
Temporary stuttering of a system can come from a few things.
1) Hard disk thrashing. Try to see if your hard disk is going bonkers during those 'small' freezes. It could be your AV software causing it.
2) Bad memory modules. I had a similar issue as yourself and I fixed it by replacing the memory. You can test this by either popping out one module at a time if possible, or replacing it all and testing. For me since I have access to the IT department, it was easy to find 'extra' memory lying around to borrow. But it's still worth trying. As an FYI Memtest86+ which I ran overnight never found anything wrong with the RAM, so take that test with a grain of salt if it comes back clean. If it claims it's bad though then definitely replace it.
3) Bad vid card. This is possible. You might want to see if you can get some diagnostics off the GPU like how hot it is and such. See if the fan on it is working as a broken fan can cause total havoc on a GPU. the best test is of course to swap it out with a known good one, but this kind of thing is hard unless you buy a new one, or have an older card lying around you can test with.
ok here it goes
1) is not that
2) i pop out the 2GB ram module that i got lat month leaving my pc with just 1 Gb of ram i boot it up play minecraft and i dint notice any errors or freezing i play for more that 10 minutes them i turn it off and pop back in the 2GB ram modues i start Windows up and play minecraft and like 3 minutes into the game i get a flash and lag
could the 2 GB ram really be the culprit ? how can i be sure
3)the card is not even a year old and dont have another one to test with
