I'm having consistent lag, both when playing League of Legends and on YouTube (when on video pages). In both cases, my commands are rarely registered and the screen has an absurdly low framerate (between 1 and 3 fps).

If it helps; it happened right after I installed the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, after postponing it forever. I thought everything was fine without it, but the thing keeps popping up, claiming I have to be up to date. Could that have screwed me over?

It is not simply annoying, it prevents me from these forms of entertainment altogether. Help would be appreciated.
 
Rollback to a previous version of flash and turn off updates and update notification. Adobe's gone quite insane with the Flash updates. It's bad enough that there's a new one each week but it's just so much worse when it causes things to break.

While this is probably not the case here, LoL is known to have massive performance issues with new updates. I've seen it discussed in the forums and it has indeed happened to myself too. I was running maximum settings around 60 FPS, until after a couple of patches ago I had to turn everything to lowest to get the same result.
 
Yeah, I;ve had issues with LoL before, but those were mostly lag spikes. This time the lag is slightly less intense, mroe consistent, and also on YouTube. And indeed, it must not be the Flash Player plug-in, because going back to two previous versions didn't work out. The only other thing I remember recently happening to my computer is Windows deciding to install a bunch of updates again. However, after that, things were still fine. I could play LoL and watch YT like normal - the problems only appeared after the Flash Player update, but disabling Flash altogheter only affects the videos - LoL doesn't use it apparently. It doesn't seem like there is any logical connection anywhere O_o.
 
Hm, I might try that, then. Still, League of Legends is not run on a web browser =|.

Anyway, Shockwave Flash alo supposedly ahs some problems from time to time. So I uninstalled Shockwave Flash, Flash Player, Adobe Air, ran CCleaner, restarted my computer, installed the Adobe thingies again, then restarted once more. It did not work. Now off to Chrome!
 
Not sure what to do with the first link. I ran the tracert thingy, but I don't know what comes next. I downloaded the stuff from the second link, but no result.
 
Alright I think I've found a solution:

  1. Turn your computer on.
  2. Thoroughly drench your hands in water - warning: do not dry your hands following this step.
  3. Open your PC case while the PC is powered on.
  4. Remove RAM modules. This should release the magic smoke from the computer.
  5. Purchase replacement computer.
  6. If replacement computer exhibits the same problem as the previous one, repeat steps 1-5.

This gave me a good chuckle.
