My laptop is almost 5 years old. What you are describing is the same thing I suffer from - MS update rot. Even if you were to clone your drive over, you would still have the rot.
What you need is a clean install.

If this is for development, get something juiced out to handle virtual machines.
Charlie Gilley

Has never been more appropriate.
