So I took advantage of the great pricing for the refurbs when the new MBPs were released. I got the 15" hi-rez anti-glare for just under $1800 Yay!

I've transfered all my files from the old MBP, installed most of my programs, etc. I was starting to watch a movie for the first time on the new machine when it started freezing. it will freeze for about 3-5 seconds with the spinning color wheel every 30-60 seconds of play. At first I thought it was the movie I was watching, maybe the file corrupted on transfer but all the movies are doing that.

Has anyone else experienced this and/or know how to fix? Or what the issue is? I never had this problem on my old MBP (purchased 2007). :(
