I dunno why do you faced that problem, but a c2d 2.2 is very capable of handling all the tasks given that RAM should be sufficient, >=2GB.swapyworld said:have seen core2duo laptops with 2.2Ghz....even they take time in opening pictures and HD movies....if you are opening multiple tabs, it will be cumbersome to operate
not always...how can one explain one with 3Gb ram but still hanging while operating a photo application by canon and transfering the pictures to USB device...it was entirey because of my friends C2D 2.2GHz laptop...bought 2 yrs back...so thats why the concern !!
