Default Need Help!

Hi guys,

I have a slight problem, and I'd really appreciate some help.

I know something is wrong with my laptop.. The speed of it is normal, but when I try to play music or videos, it really lags. The sound is distorted, and it's slow. This only happens when my "orange indicator light" is lit.

Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks.

Summin is running in the background by the sounds off it, probably a virus or spyware.

I'm not sure about that, I've ran both my anti-spyware and anti-virus, both have come up with nothing.

I really don't understand this.

it would help to know what the orange light actually means. You may have too many processes running so it might be worth removing some programs that start up with windows.
Generally a system restore is the best course of action.
However, i'll give you some more ideas once i find out what the orange indicator means; my guess is that its the battery charge indicator but i'll wait for you to confirm
