In post 13 it does say that,but in post 17 the OP states "sometimes randomly jumping to 40%."
Going to do the memtest tonight once I finish work, thanks for the help again.
Thought It was the video card overloading cause I checked the usage which was at 97% but then I lowered the settings to low and still wasn't able to run smooth. FFXIV lags horrifically when I make a move or during a cut scene. Like I run forward and end up taking 3 steps back each time. Then if I tilt the camera I'll get like a scar through the middle occasionally.

When lowering the settings to low it was running at 30%. Forgot to mention.

Just a video of how I'm lagging exactly so you know. During this vid I only had the game and a GPU/CPU monitor open. Aswell as fraps. Monitor was showing 10-20% CPU and 40-80% GPU (sometimes dropped to 0, which i'm guessing is because it's not needed while I'm lagging like that)

Ok, just finished doing all those tips. I'm going to try re-installing the game, maybe thats the reason? Seems to only be lagging when I'm playing that game. So maybe a corrupt file?
Memtest86 seemed all ok, no errors popped up after running. Haven't been online in a while. probably test it tonight.
Net speed via Speedtest.net is showing D25mbps U5mbps which is kind of low to what we usually get but I haven't noticed any change in buffering etc. And they're prepping the area for double BB speeds. If 100mbps

1st get rid of Trend for a start. Put on Avast (my fave free atm) or a different anti-virus of choice.
Do you have static IP (same IP address each time you connect to net) or dynamic IP? (different IP each time router is started)
are you using wired or wireless network.
I would as said remove the trend anti-virus, and then set your connection to static IP. Depending on what connection you use you will need to configure it
Control Panel - Network and sharing - change adapter settings.
Right click adapter you use, properties
from list select internet protocol version 4 - properties
Use the following IP =
IP address outside your DHCP settings (you will need to find this in your router config page by logging into your router) DHCP Start Address: DHCP End Address
For EG if your DHCP start address is 192.168.1.1 and your end address is set to 192.168.1.200 then configure your IP address as 192.168.1.201
Subnet mask = 255.255.255.0 (usually automatic)
Default Gateway= 192.168.1.1 (or whatever IP the router uses) **can find by opening cmd prompt and type ipconfig /all
Use the following DNS =
Preferred DNS server:
Alternate DNS server:
Above are your ISP preferred DNS. You can again find these by logging into your router or google the name of your ISP and preferred DNS settings and you should find it easy enough
Then you'll probably have to restart the router and sometimes the PC, too (usually just the router).
If you do the same for wireless, use a different IP address

Are you talking about windows or virgin's anti-virus? :x Sorry

Try using that and see it it can uninstall it for you. If you run 2 anti virus progs at same time it can certainly cause unwanted effects.
If you delete it it could still leave registry issues, so try above first.
