Anyone had problems with this.

I have nokia nseries pc suite installed on my lappy, well when I try and run the updater, it tells me it has to update to continue. So I click ok and well the thing just freezes all the time.

I check my processes and there is the DelayedExecution.exe hogging all my resources i.e. at least 50%. The other day there was two of them running ala no room for movement ala 100% usage.

Never had any problems before, my pc is has 1 gig of ram plenty of hd space processor is a dual core 2 duo so plenty power and its windows xp mce.

Anyone else had any problems and is there another way to update my phone for future reference.

A stab in the dark but it could be the N series suite you're using. Mine had problems with map loader and in the end I uninstalled it and now just use the vanilla PC suite.

I get the impression that N series suite is a bit of an afterthought from Nokia. Like much of their software. I stand to be corrected.

Just thought id let you know this problem still exist.

All firewalls and antivirus/malware software has been disabled but unfortunately I am seeing no progress.

Disable your firewall and Virus checker before running updates (or NSU).
Remember to enable them again afterwards!

I use Symantec Norton Internet Security on my PC and Nokia apps don't seem to be able to get through the firewall when it's turned on.
