I have a laptop, and I connected a monitor to it, to have spilt screen,
could that be a couse of my laptop lagging?

Technically, it could. But if it's even half new and moderately powered, it shouldn't make a difference. Specs?
I got it about 1 year ago for my birthday
it's a; Compaq Presario CQ70 Notebook.
What do you mean with specs?
processor, and all that kind of stuff.
Processor : Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU T3400 @ 2.16GHz 2.17GHz
Memory (RAM): 3,00GB
Computer Type: 32-bits
Window version: Windows Vista Home Basic
Service Pack 2
Is that enough information?
Yeah, that should be enough. When you say split screen, do you mean extended onto the second monitor, or duplicated? Also are you sure that it only lags when connected to the monitor. This is odd.
It's extended, well, is laggs very much when i connected the monitor,
but it laggs sometimes without the extra monitor, but a lot less..
check your battery settings, i was laggy and i didn't know why, then i remembered my setting was on power saver, if that be the case, then change setting to either balanced or high performance.
I have it on high performance too
what kind of laptop do you have?
I have a Compaq Presario CQ70 Notebook.
Without the monitor connected, close all open programs and go into ask manager and then the processes tab. Do you see anything taking up a large amount of RAM or CPU?
Not anything unusual, only some programs to keep my laptop running..
