[QUOTE="eric, post: 392203, member: 22327"] well if the hardware is good, the next step might just be a little system maintenance... download either of these: [B][URL="http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/20070"]onyx[/URL][/B] - excellent maintenance tool, great for cache maintenance and tweaking preferences. free! [B][URL="http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/25902"]mainmenu[/URL][/B] - alternative to onyx, not quite as fully featured, but easier to use, and a bit less dangerous. run the cache cleaning (for everything). restart the machine when it asks. this first restart will be relatively slow. just let it start, it's rebuilding some application caches from scratch. you're next restarts will be much faster, and you'll be free of the junk left over from the build of the machine. this may or may not fix the issue, but should make the machine a bit snappier. let us know if that helps and maybe we can come up with something else.
