    hey all
    i got a A200-1AX
    specs are
    1.8Ghz Core 2 T7100
    2GB of ram
    200GB HD (4200rpm)
    HD2600 256mb

    the problem is that, every time i try and play music on windows media player or itunes, the laptop freezes every 10 seconds and the HD light is constantly turned on, it doesn't even blink.
    I need help, what could be doing this, i mean, even though the hard drives a 4200rpm version, Toshiba wouldn't have put it in there in the first place if a 1300$ laptop couldn't even play music?!
    got this last year after a few days the A200 line was released and I'm running vista hp x32
