Your non-paged pool is consuming around 3GB of RAM, leaving little room for other processes. This can happen after switching to Windows 8.1, which uses less memory than Windows 7. Consider checking for unnecessary background apps or adjusting settings to free up resources.

Are there any background processes or additional software installed?

Your PC is running at 2.8 with Steam, Chrome, Skype, and Torrent enabled. This suggests the issue lies with your device.
