Do you have a separate or combined number pad. If combined is numlock on?

My laptop is full size and has a number pad on the left side, just like a normal keyboard. Should I have numlock on or off? I never considered that as a factor.

When was the last time you cleaned it out and dusted? If cleaning it out and it still has a problem I would run a benchmark program like PassMark which will test your CPU/RAM and Video Card. If it fails any of the tests or crashes during one you might get an idea of the problem.
Edit/PS - If none of this checks out and you still have a problem you may want to make sure no antivirus/firewall is active or interfering. You may also want to check out the Scheduled Tasks in windows and see if some program has inserted an hourly scan/update check most people never clean these out (many programs like google/facebook do, those assholes). If still having issue check your Wireless card if your using wireless, they can overheat as well or become POS over time. Make sure connection is atleast 80% signal if it drops below that I find Project 1999 servers will easily de-synch.

I have not cleaned it out and I work in an outdoor environment, I will try that. Even if it doesnt fix it it probably needs it anyway. The machine isnt HOT HOT HOT but it definitely gets pretty warm.
I have not seen evidence that firewall or antivirus is doing it, wouldnt that give me a warning somehow? Other games have in the past.
My connection is usually very strong and I routinely zone faster than 90% of others in my group.
