Sorry to burden you all this sunny day with a laptop performance & norton issue but here it is anyway:

moker [Edit] [Delete] 16:15, 7 April '11

My laptop is nice anew. 4gb of RAM. Almost nothing on the hard drive.

BUT, it splutters and stutters and freezes when it tries to play audio /video. This only happens at time, but it happens frequently. CPU usage whizzes up to 95-100%.

After a bit of investigation, Think it might be to do with Norton 260 protection. I’ve turned of the live updates (as that slows it down massively) but it’s still a problem.

Anyone else had this? Basically, I have an amazing new laptop that can’t do shit. Fucking bollocks.
