lsd process causing 100% cpu and beachballing
Hi guys,
I hope someone can help me with this. My computer has recently started using 100% cpu on a process called "lsd". It totally locks up my computer and i have to hard restart it by holding in the power button. I can force it to do this is i select a video and then choose "open with" as it is pulling up the subsequent windows, it will beachball and go to 100% cpu because of this process.
I read something Linc Davis had previously posted about console, so i have gone there and here is the dump for "lsd":
