    I have this 2 month old T500 with Win 7 64bit and it has problem. It randomly re-boots - sometimes after a few hours sometimes before I can even start email. I ran Malwarebytes which removed two trojans (despite Zonealarm!). I also have run the PC Doctor in recovery mode, restored to before this happened, did the Windows update, and also tried to run the Lenovo driver updater (v4). However a crash occured just as it was pulling some recommended updates and now I get this message:

    "A problem occurred while loading the System Update configuration settings. Please wait while System Update restarts."

    When I click "ok" the message just comes back after a few seconds.

    I downloaded the latest version from the lenovo website, but the same thing happens.

    This is very annoying to say the least, also seems the system is running a bit hotter than before. Anys suggestions would be appreciated.
