Is it a laptop? If so, do defrag...
But if it is really so bad, that's prolly not the solution. I bet on spyware and/or a virus. Start using some decent anti-spoyware (spybot search and destroy is a good start). http://www.spybot.info/
Also do a virus scan on your computer after a startup in safe mode. You could download Norton Anti Virus (free for 30 days) at www.symantec.com .
Before you do this, you could do ctrl-alt-del while you are in windows, go to processes -> list by CPU-usage and look for which file is using CPU-power. If there's one that keeps coming back, then google the process name and see what you get.
If you are virus- and spywarefree and still have it, then it's a hardware problem...
BTW: if you think this is too much trouble, then just format your hard disk. That always does the trick!

It's got nothing to do with FRAPS. It's something his computer is doing periodically, possibly a process. Check your process list before you play and shut down everything unneeded.

Do you have a laptop or desktop? Do you use Norton? If so: change to another virus scanner. Check for spyware.
