Skyrim menu lag

Whenever I access the menus or select favorites, the game lags for like 5 seconds, and sometimes I'm forced to cancel and try again. Is anyone else experiencing this? I got the game 3 days ago and have it installed.

Next time you find the menu lagging, look in the upper left-hand corner: the game is autosaving, most likely. Don't know why it decides to do it at those random intervals, but it does.

I had this bad, but read a solution on another site.

Go to your hard drive, press y and select 'clear cache'.

Works like a charm, and repeat as needed.
