    Hi,

    For some reason D3 has been running in slow motion for me on my Dell XPS L702. It ran fine since launch until about last week. I know that this is a known problem in the D3 community, but my issue is that after closing the game, my entire computer runs in slow motion. The windows are in slow motion and any other game I play is in slow motion. I have to restart to fix the problem. The game running in slow motion is one thing, but causing my entire laptop to run in slow motion seems very strange to me. Can I get some suggestions on what the problem could be?

    Thank you.

    Check cpu usage/processes/page file usage in task manager, maybe some leftover process from D3 is still running in background.
