I have a thinkpad t500 with vista and i seem to have a problem with system update 3. When i run the program it just seems to continually use 80% of my two procs and 6,000k of memory. I see the splash and then nothing else happens. Is the program doing something? I believe it is falling into some sort of infinite loop (i have let it run for 3-4 hrs). Anyone else have this issue.
