Welcome to WTT
Please try this for your lagging issue.
1. Go to Start / control Panel / System / Advanced System Settings / Performance Settings / change to "Adjust for best performance" / Apply / OK
2. Open and run Disk Cleanup
3. Defrag. your computer
See if this fixes the problem.
Cheers,

Hey, thanks for the welcome
I didn't have time to try defragmenting, but I ran LoL (which is the game that usually has the most issues with lag) after changing the performance settings, and it ran a lot smoother. Still a few random lag spikes, but not for as long or as often. I'll let you know how things work after I defragment.

Take note of your ping, upload and download speeds at http://www.speedtest.net/. don't click on "start Scan" as you need to click on "begin Test" that appears on the laptop screen at the site. You could also try a cable connection just to see if the lagging disappears due to better signal strength.
The fact that other computers on your network don't have your lagging problem doesn't mean much unless they are all the same computer model with the same OS setup and drivers. Even then it might just be an issue with your computer.
PS edit. If you still haven't done so, It is very important to defrag. your hard-drive before beginning the above tests.

A few while running LoL:

I'll try to find an unused network cable and go wired for a bit, see if that fixes things.
Also, I found out that my automatic driver updates weren't working for my network card. Got a new driver installed and that seems to help a lot. Not quite perfect, but I am noticing a huge change.
