Hello B.J,

Priority changing from Normal to Below Normal?
What's your performance settings into windows - Programs or Background services?

Hello Micheal,
Im a little bit iliterate when it comes to computers so please excuse the
poor discription of the problem. As i type this message after i write a
couple of words the border around the window will go form dark blue to a
light coloured blue like the windows im not working on and i will have to
click back on to the window to continue what im doing and this will continue
through out.
Now I checked my performance settings into windows as you asked and they are
set on 'programs' as aposed to 'backround services'.

does it happens with all applications?
have u tried to unload all apps which are started with the windows and make
sure that the problem exists? seems that the other app behave so bizarre
have u tried to check your system on spyware app?
