The reason why I am writing is because the games I am playing tends to freeze for a few seconds and then resumes. It does this every 30 seconds to a minute. It didn't do this before. It started doing it more recently. Is there a feature I need to select in order to fix that? Is it a driver issue? Please help me and tell me what do to. I would really appreciate your immediate response. Once again, thank you very much.
I am using pcsx2 1.2.1
Laptop
Windows 7
Intel Core i7 CPU Q840 1.87 GHz processor
64 bit operating system
16 GB RAM
Nvidia GeForce GT 445M

most likely a ram issue, does this happen with other apps.

If it was a RAM issue you'd experience a full freeze though, possibly combined with a BSOD.
This could be a HDD issue more than RAM imo. If it's trying to read something that's located on a bad sector it will freeze or slow down the system badly until it completes that process. Especially since he mentioned that it's occurring more often now, indicating there might be more bad sectors on the drive as it further deteriorates.
If you really want to rule out RAM to be safe you can always get Memtest86+ and run that for a while. (Test each stick individually if you have more than one), but I don't think it's the RAM.
Buuut in the end we can't really be sure of anything without knowing more info about his system/PCSX2 settings.

Tell us this:
- game you experience this with
- playing from an iso or from actual CD / DVD
- computer specs (processor name and speed, amount of ram, operating system)
