Hi,

I have just started using HEM in the last couple of days and it was working great except for my last few sets today. I don't know if it was the HUD but I have to assume it was because this kind of stuff never happened before. So I was 12 tabling when it got really slow and laggy like it was going to lock up and a few times it did lockup. When I say laggy I mean like I would move the mouse but it wouldn't actaully move until a second or two later and the lag was intermittent. Like the sngs would be smooth and then in a minute lag and then smooth and so forth. The pokerstars client said not responding and it took like 30-45 seconds to come back to life. Those are precious seconds in a sng especially a DON. I just want to know if it's ok to have skype and firefox open at the same time as the HUD? Also, I use stars hotkeys and stars assistant while I am playing. I have a DELL studio 15 laptop with 4GB ram, Intel core 2 duo 64bit at 2.00 Ghz running vista. I am not the most computer savvy but can do some stuff. What do you guys recommend to get the HUD running so this won't happen again because I can't have my games start running real laggy and my client locking up when I am grinding $100 sng's! ;-)

Thanks,
Nick
