    Was running a browser game and then the darn thing locked up. Restarted several times and the thing is running dirt slow.

    Turned it off and let it cool down for a bit and then pulled the drive and placed it in the spare CF-29 I have, which then runs normal.

    Place the drive back in the first unit and still, slow.

    Process manager shows 100% cpu usage continuously.

    Also noted that RTVscan.exe is stuck at 474k and can't get it to stop. I was able to kill it when the drive was in the other cf-29.

    Did I kill the first cf-29?

    For everyone's information. RTVScan.exe is part of Symantec AntiVirus..

    Web search shows there is a problem with NavLogon.DLL...

    Personally I won't run anything Symantec makes.....Memory hog and bloatware.......

    I use MSE...and it's FREE...(Microsoft Security Essentials).
    Comodo Free Firewall......Just the firewall..not the security package...

    I will be looking at that MSE, although, I've not had any problems running symantec stuff on my systems.

    I'm thinking that I've manage to overheat the CF-29 that I was referring to in the first post. It's lagging up pretty good when trying to open anything up.

    Clearly a software, not a hardware problem.

    So I ended up having to the manual remove route to get rid of norton. It seemed to help a little.

    I took my spare cf-29 drive that was clean and loaded Ubuntu on it. Seems to run a lot faster, but as stated in another thread, the battery life was short lived.
