try disabling some startup programs.
click start, then run. type "msconfig" in there and press enter. when you get the window click the "startup" tab and unclick stuff you don't need (this is normally most things, most programs will start when asked to, so don't need to be running at startup) then click apply or ok (whatever it says) then restart the computer and see where you get

also, reinstall AVG, i've seen afew machines now where the updater for it is constantly running and maxes out the processor. if you go to task manager then processes you may notice avgrsx.exe running and taking up alot of resources
a simple reinstall normally sorts it

Could try looking in task manager to see what is running/hogging resources.
