Angry Strange Lag

For the last few months my computer has been out of the case. So to say just layed out on the table. I got tired of swapping MBs into the case so i just left it. Anyway I put it all back in the cast today, same as it was. Nothing about the setup changed except the 3 large case fans. Well now when I load up windows its lagging when i do anything. easiest way to describe it is when i right click on the desktop the drop down that is supposed to appear comes in VERY slowly. and if i try to move the cursor around it lags really bad. you know it jumps around randomly. I can not for the life of my figure it out. I thought maybe because of the case fans it was a power drain so i disconnected my extra hard drives and the fans. Nothing form that. then i swapped the ram around, nothing. I increased the CPU voltage, nothing. I checked all the connections and dont know what else could cause this. Any advice is grately appreciated. Thank You


Joe
