netbook help! toshiba nb205 videos stutter T_T?

when i first got it it all seemed to work snappy and fine.

but lately, i notice it seems to suck. when i watch youtube or hulu it's fine until the cooling fan kicks in then the video stutters like crazy. its really annoying and it's not a windows problem because it happens the same when i use jolicloud (different os on another partition).

any help greatly appreciated. the fan didnt used to affect video playback or at least not as much but now it has a great affect but i dont know why, my guess is the fans are already dirty or there is some kind of damage to my hd or cpu or something i dont really know

    you sound like you know what your doing.

    Clean your system up

    run a registry cleaner

    clean the fan

    download SpeedFan and watch your system

    I don't know reboot your modem try anything you can think of.

    update drivers

    If this problem happens on both OS's it has to be a hardware or internet problem.

    Maybe try one of them cooling pads that has fans in them

    in case you frequently in basic terms surf the information superhighway, edit information and chat or skype, then you definately would be very happy with Ubuntu netbook out of the container. in case you pick to run video games, or appreciate a particular piece of application that isn't run on linux, then you definately could desire to be keen to section with that. do slightly googling to make useful the application you desire and desire will run first. Ubuntu netbook isn't for each man or woman, in spite of the incontrovertible fact that it's going to be swifter, and extra stable than XP.
