I agree with Ludwig, upgrade to 256mb if you don't want to shell out for more (512mb is ideal). Try ebay, you can usually find more than enough memory for pretty cheap. I also recommend clean reinstalling windows, installing any updates and service packs, and then reingtalling your essential software. If you have disks for all your software, it's not as big of a job as some people think. Before you do that, though, try this program, free off download.com- do a search for ccleaner. It deletes your junk temporary files, but the best thing is it lets you see all the stuff that starts up when windows starts and you can turn the nonessentials off. Try that first, then the memory upgrade, and if that doesn't give you the boost you want, reinstall windows. Sorry for the long post, e-mail me if you have questions. Good Luck! -Chris
