I have a 2.3Ghz 1GB RAM and a 120GB HD WinXP.........it slows down my pc too. I thought when I had a 466Mhz 188MB RAM and a 80GB HD Win98SE it was normal, but this is BS. Any ideas on how my computer could still run fast like as if LW wasn't running? I have to wait a few seconds for my browser to load and going from page to page is almost like having dialup or worse.
