    Guys, i'm having trouble with dell xps l502x. when i close any of my windows they seem to hesitate or it almost looks like the 'drag' or are very slow when opening or closing and it glitches. like there is no graphic driver. i thought it was a graphic problem so i formatted it totally but still i'm having that problem. So, sometimes i have to power off laptop like 10- 15 minutes and problem is gone & i can open/close window in split of seconds but again when i reboot problem comes back.

    do anyone know what's the problem ? i have installed all updated drivers from dell.com

    Edit:- Today i think i finally found a solution. it was because of Logitech Unifying Receiver that was causing windows 7 aero lag when max and min windows. I use Logitech Unifying Receiver for K800 & M570.

    When i remove Logitech Unifying Receiver and use windows 7 it works smoothly but again then when i plug it & reboots windows it starts to lag and slows down max & min windows.

    How could that be possible ? is that even possible, one tiny receiver can actually do that.?

    Yes, I also thought so might be BIOS giving me trouble so, i just updated BIOS like one week ago, Yep, Fully Up to date Windows 7 update.

    I formatted twice recently, I just installed dell drivers I thought may be some software is causing it so i didn't installed any software but problem is still there.

    It only Happens when laptop is on and use more then like 6-7 hours and then when i restart it, problem comes back from nowhere. it's like if i don't power off a laptop more then a day and i reboot it. problem becomes worst & worst & opening/closing windows opens/closes slower then ever in slow motion, but laptop speed itself is fast. Problem is only opening/closing window thing

    Laptop is still in warranty period. What shall i do ?

    Here are temp info

    That's very weird. I would give Dell a ring.

    I read that on Microsoft forum other few peoples are also having the same problem. and saying it's a windows 7 bug. & Problem is unsolvable only few peoples are having problem with Aero mode dragging open/close window preview problems.

    But i assume if it's a windows problem then it'd go away if i completely wipe it/format it and install home edition but problem is not going away.
