Lag spikes. Making my gmod crash.

[Funny]

I have been playing gmod this week but 55% of the time i just join a server i get this crazy lag spike when its loading the gamemode and then my Gmod Crashes.

Do any of you know why this happens?

Sometimes it does also happen when i take a suit/weapon on.

This can be caused by background processes - EG. File transferring. If you could, Please pop onto the server and check your task manager and put a print screen of it here.

[Funny]

You seem to have decent enough specs to run it.
1) Does it only do this on FL?
2) Has it always done this?
3) Try a different map on FL
