    So recently I've been experiencing problems with my m14x. About every 5-10 seconds or so, the computer will freeze for a second and then go back to normal and then freeze again and so on and so forth. I have had the motherboard and heat sink replaced but I am still experiencing problems. I have done some research but can't find a real solution. I have tried uninstalling Mcafee and that hasn't worked. I think I read somewhere that it might be the hard drive? Any help would be appreciated.
