Performance for SKYPE .
I was recommended to replace my faithful R-100 a 1.1Ghz single core with 1.25Mb RAM with the NB520 duel core etc, after mobo troubles began.
I cannot begin to say how dissapointed I am with it.
After removing the bloatware from start-up, I can idle with 52 processes.
W7HP
Cannot get any less.
This figure was 62 with AVG Internet Security running, but I have since sacked AVG, and stuck with MS Essentials.
Even still, I cannot make a SKYPE call Audio ONLY without firstly being warned that my pc is running slowly ! Battery or PSU
My R100 ran great even with a web-cam running !
The shop which I purchaced this craptop from is not interested, but offered to send it away at my cost ! Cheeky f88883rs.
I do not use the 'latest' program of skype for the 'auto-updated' that you cannot de-activate.
This is NOT the problem, as it still did not work correctly either.
Apart from stamping on this stress machine and loosing out ££££'s HELP PLEASE !!
