Just wanted to share an issue that I had with my computer over the last few months...
within days of upgrading to MC20, I started to have problems with my computer during which time it would slow down incredibly while typing. I would have to reboot the computer several times a day. This issue drive my crazy to the point that I decided it was time to reformat my hard drive and start fresh. I installed my primary software (Office 2010, JRiver; (what else does one really need ;D?) and ensured that all drivers were updated. But again, the problem persisted. But within a day the problem returned. It was driving me crazy. I downgraded to MC19 as my computer worked seamlessly with that version but again the problem returned. I realized that the primary issue appeared to be a slowdown when typing. I pulled out an old wired keyboard and plugged it in and behold, the problem disappeared. I then realized that the issue appeared to be a bad USB port at the back of my computer.
It has now been almost a week since I stopped using the particular USB port - No slowdowns and everything seems to be working well. I am simply writing this post to let others know that strange things can happen and it is not always MC's fault :o
have a great day
