I say laptops because this is the second laptop in a week that is doing this. I was using a windows 7 and no problems. I bought a new acer touchscreen laptop and it had a 1gh processor ..calibre kept freezing during every function. I figured it was too slow of a processor so I took it back and bought a toshiba with a 2.4 gh processor. 6 gb ram. It's doing the same thing and the toshiba is giving this error
calibre is using high cpu ..at one point it said 97% !!!
I am so lost. I did not have this problem on my windows 7 . I am so frustrated and don't have a clue what to do. I tried calibre portable and got the same thing. I went and downloaded an older version just to check and it is doing the same thing. Anyone have any ideas?
