Lagging (Not network based to my knowledge)

[Wisp]

First off I want to apologize in advance for not knowing exactly where to post this. I'm pretty sure that it's a Windows problem and not a network or hardware issue though.

So here's what's happening. On the internet my computer lags constantly, this has only happened after a windows repair. I've scanned for viruses and adware/spyware and all scans have come up dry. I used Kaspersky and Ad-Aware SE. I uninstalled and reinstalled my network card, and checked for driver updates. But with no avail.

System Specs:
Windows XP pro service pack 2
AMD Athlon 64 x2 4200
150gb Western Digital HD
PC-Chips A11G motherboard
1.5gb 800 speed RAM
Airplus G wireless card (D-Link)

Other info:
the network is sound, and no other computer on the network lags. It is a home network with 3 PCs connected, mine and one other being the only two on wireless.

Running a ping check in command prompt yields results such as:

I play a lot of online games, and I can't with the constant lag.

I have a feeling that something is conflicting but I don't even know where to look. Please help.

Thank you in advance for your help.
