    Hey

    I have just purchased a DV2500T and have a couple of issues with it.

    The notebook has 2 gig of ram, 8400GS video card and a T5450 Core 2 duo CPU

    When I'm playing music through windows media player and browsing the internet, or even browsing through windows, the music seems to intermittently stutter or skip.... :mad:

    Also I have noticed after the notebook has been on for a while sometimes the screen has a bunch of little pixels which seem to move around the screen but then disappear... kinda looks as though the video card is lagging?

    Are these issues normal?

    Any help would be much appreciated!

    Interested to see if anyone else has the skipping issue... I get it in iTunes... wonder if I should roll back the sound card driver.

    Turn off Windows Vista file index and that should fix the skipping.
