3/19/2010 3:29:22 PM takes 30 minutes or more for my browser (IE 8 or Firefox 3.6) to open - if they open at all. Very slow - and when reboot - takes at least 20 minutes or more.

6/11/2011 12:41:50 PM I'm guessing at the age of the PC, as it was given to me used. I know its components are outdated, but I've upgraded as much of it as I can. I need more hard drive space and a faster processor, in addition to more RAM.

1/11/2010 3:43:43 PM WinXP SP3, having prob with explorer; can right on item and most times that will cause an unknown error and explorer must close. Previously had load problem with XP SP3 (and talking to MS help tech) did a cold or hot something that reinstalled XP SP1, skipped SP2, and downloaded and installed SP3. Ever since I have been having problems and the PC is very, very slow. Also, something is going on with my video as the screen is larger than it used to be and some things are gone to the right or the screen-Nvidia card with both analog and digital outputs. Analog seems to work ok but the digital output I used with my LCD 19.5 in Samsung SyncMaster943bwx is not like it used to be.
