Fraps recording at 20FPS tops?

Until recently, fraps has been running like a babe on my system, I'd hit 60 FPS and create great videos using it, but recently it has been playing up. I can't record without hitting a solid 20 fps or lower, all my fraps movie folder is cleared out but it's lagging like hell. I own a youtube channel and in all of my videos I'm getting great FPS, I just don't know a reason for it doing this. I haven't done anything to my rig and changed nothing, it just doesn't work. And I'm trying to release out a montage and it won't let me because of how laggy it is. I play Minecraft and record it btw, that's what the lag is on.

Have you downloaded anything that might be running in the back ground with out you noticing. Open up task manager by pressing controll alt delete and click task manager and see if there a background program tiring you r CPU

Your hard drive might be full. Fraps' videos are big
