Did a Windows Update mess with Aspire?

Post by DHDeitrick »

Have been using Aspire 9 & 9.5 on a windows machine and in a virtual machine. Really had no problems with update, but today both programs in both environments have slowed significantly. 9.5 is essentially unusable. Rebooted both machines without any improvement. Aspire 9.0 is barely tolerable.

Any idea what happened?

Thanks

Working ok for me with all the latest updates. Have you looked in task manger to see what's hogging the CPU?

My VMware instance now stays at 100% CPU even with nothing running, so I know it isn't a Vectric/Aspire issue. I plan on reloading VMware.

I upgraded my VMware to use Windows 10 to resolve the issue.
