shiinta Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 I have a problem when running uTorrent. It tends to take up to 50 or so % of the CPU power. Even when it's not downloading. This makes everything else on my computer to hang up like sound and other software.Anyone else had this problem or have a solution?I've tried reinstalling it, but with no luck.

shiinta Posted May 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 I'm using uTorrent 1.6.1.It uses that much resources when I start it and till I stop it. goes from 14-60 or so and really makes it impossible for me to use the computer while I have uTorrent running.
