[QUOTE="IWT, post: 1904549, member: 83420"] It's possible that a non-Apple, third party app might be running in the background - or maybe not. But one thing worth trying is to Boot into Safe Mode. All background functions that can be stopped along with all third party apps are blocked. Then see if it works. At least you cannot do any harm in trying Safe Mode. This Apple article covers allStartup Key combinations for all types of Mac. Scroll down to where you see Safe Mode (shown as Shift + Command).
