Illiad86 Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 haha you faced the same problem I did when I had a laptop...improper stupid airflow design :rolleyes: Had to make "feet" for mine out of Sculpey modeling clay until I got a notebook cooler haha. You could probably call Norton to reclaim your code if you registered with them...if not, it's on the CD case I know...my grandma had that BS of a program. Is it 2009 atleast? I wouldn't reinstall if it wasn't hahah...
Bridgepiece Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 Figured it out. Its the fan. Because of where the fan is located (right on the bottom), I dont think enough cool air can get it and enough hot air can get out. I propped it up on 2 books, and it seems to have fixed it. Though, thanks to all of you, I now have about 177 GB of free memory and about 4 gb of RAM. Arma 2 might not be a lag fest anymore! See!! I told ya so! lmao.. to bad u had reinstalled everything, shoulda checked the fans before hand ;) Glad to see your back and running tho!
Medieval_Swordsman1994 Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 The random lag spazems could have been caused by fragmentation in your hardrive Would have been fast and easy to fix (When i say fast i meen like 1hour - 2days!)
LHammonds Posted December 18, 2009 Posted December 18, 2009 If you cannot get Norton working or is too old, give Comodo Internet Security a try. It is 100% free and a quality product (anti-malware, anti-virus, firewall). 3rd Party Review of Security Suites LHammonds
