    Hi everyone.

    Well, my problem is that when I am downloading something and it is going pretty fast, my computer kind of crash. All the application run very slow and "jumping", even the mouse, when I move it, jumps, it is not going fluidly. Then when I pause the download, everything is going good again.
    I already update the drivers of the Ethernet card, but the same.
    Virus, spywares, etc... don't think so, I take care with this issue, and scan my PC very often.

    Thanks for your help

    I'm running Vista 64
    I reinstall using the respawn, but I update several devices, like, video card, Ethernet, audio, finger print reader, and I think that's it.

    17-inch WideUXGA 1920 x 1200
    Dual ATI Radeon HD 3870
    Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz
    4GB DDR3
    Illuminated Keyboard
    Vista 64-bit

    Thanks again.

    I finish all the other application, and teh computer is going fine, but when I start to download something, everything is going really slow. Even now writring, i type and the letters appears really slow.
