Weird Problem

Okay, for some reason, my RPGMaker is running real slow. When I go to play or test run my game, the arrows don't moveo n the title or in message boxes. When I push enter, nothing happens for a long time, eventually it'll select what I selected forever ago. But when you're done reading a box of text and push enter to go to the next box, it's the same thing, reeeeeeeaaaal long time before anything happens. I haven't been able to see if this slowness is only by text or everything else. Buti t's weird, because everything else I can see runs fine, music is fine, background animations move, etc.
Anyone got any ideas? I've tried uninstalling than reinstalling rm2k3, but to no avail. I tried restarting too, still nothing. I really hope it's nothing major.
Oh, and PS, it's not just my game, other rm2k3 games do the same thing.
EDIT: If i minimize it than unminimize it, it will go to the next message. Same with clicking out of it, then clicking back in.
EDIT2: ****, when the name hero screen pops up and you click out and click back in, it enters in the letter A. Sowhenever you click out thne click back in, for some reason the program takes that as pushing Enter. WHY is it doing this!?!?

When you have a Test Play window open, right click the taskbar and click Task Manager (or press Ctrl+Alt+Del). Go to the processes tab. Does the Test Play window have a really high number in the CPU column?

Wow, it says about 32,000 K. 0_0
EDIT: The CPU fluctuates between 4 and like 24.

Well, if it was XP, Id say to import an anti lagging script....but its not.
Not sure why its running so Heavy.
Any show picture events, or overlays or anything? When they lag up my projects, I like to add a "Wait 0 secends" command bewtween things...sometimes it helps. Sometimes it helps to switch parallell processed events to a blank page after theyre done excecuting...So the event isnt constantly performing it ovver and over..
But if this is stuff Im sure you're aware of...
I dont know man....
What sort of Sound files and stuff are playing?

I have a feeling it has nothing to do with events or anything I've put in. I wasm essing around with it and found out that if I wait for the next text box to pop, it never will. It will only go to the next text box when i click out and click back in or minimize then unminimize.

Problem solved. For some reason my computer was running amazingly slow, so I restarted it and it runs fine now. Real weird and random problem though.

Yeah, that's happened to me before. Not the RM thing, but the weird slowness for no reason thing. Seriously, what was causing me to be unable to run WMP, PS, 10 windows of Paint, and GMod 9 all at once? I do that stuff almost constantly most days... So I restarted my freshly turned on (like, 10 minutes of only Firefox), and it worked fine
While we're here, and while it's relevant, anyone else have any abnormal computer occurances that had no cause and may or may not have had a rational solution?
