10/16/2010 1:40:41 PM The computer itself is fine. The issue is when HP Udates and Norton Internet Security and Windows Updates are running, sometimes simultaneously I cannot do anything on the computer until all the updates are done. I would prefer all automatic updates be performed when the computer is not in use. A schedule of my choosing.
