    I remember a little while ago seeing somewhere on here something about how with some wireless cards it does something to prevent the processor from running as fast as it should causing slowdowns and there was a link to check and see if it was happing to yours, well ive been noticing some slowdowns especially when i am trying to go from video to video on youtube theres a long lag and for a second the program says it isnt even responding, idk if im having this problem or if its firefox or what, any help would be appreciated and/or the link to wherever it is this problem has already been talked about. Thanks
