    I am really enjoying my aspire one. but lately, January 9, to be exact, my laptop slowed down. i mean, whenever i play videos (not internet videos, but videos that i made which i know for a fact that they are working properly) and music (mp3 files), it slows down. the video plays in "slow-mo"; same with the music. i'm not really sure how this happened, but i hope anyone can help me :D

    ps: i really love the aspire one okay. it super helped me a lot with my studies. but now, im going sad coz i cant watch my very own videos properly and listen to music properly :(

    Did you enable the slow-mo mode in your media player? If you do, adjust the speed mode back to normal and your problem will be fixed.
