Yo, indi

You say that you have a P4 Chip? What chip is that?

I am running WinXP SP2 (auto updates on) P4, 3.2GHz with 1Gig DDR400 Ram, 256MB ASUS V9570 TD Video Card & I can tell you that I have the following open.....

ARES, LimeWire, Outlook(check mail every 3 min), IE browsing + - 4 pages etc and this is when I am not busy.....

So you will excuse me for not understanding why you say your machines is slow???? Check your software..........

All the best
