    I just bought a new Toshiba Laptop a135-s4427. I put 1.5 gigs of ram in it. It is running windows vista and it is great. But every time I download something on utorrent it completly freezes my laptop. I mine completly, I can't do anything but hold down the power button to turn it off.
    What could be the problem? More RAM?

    Are you using the wireless access to download from utorrent? By the way, that laptop is advertised as having 2 gigs of ram so if you put 1.5 more you have now 3.5 gigs of ram?

    I only got one gig of RAM and I have a wired ethernet connection. I use time warner if that helps.
