Although our replies haven't been highly technical, we need some response to our suggestions. chuckmg, can you give us any feedback, please?...
It is a regular "hit" on the processor. I would investigate the way Evan suggested, find out what process is happening when the CPU spikes.
Well that will fix it, always does :D, but you need to make a decision one way or the other, eventually. Your friend can can look forward to a...
Sounds good, thanks for letting us know. You've covered quite a lot of ground. Your experience level will be the winner. Matt
