Please post the specifications of your machine as we cannot help you
without knowing what hardware and/or we're dealing with.

Try Ctrl+Alt+Delete to select Task Manager and click the Performance
Tab. Under Commit Charge what is the Total, the Limit and the Peak?

How large is your hard disk and how much free space.

How much RAM memory?

What are your anti-virus and anti-spyware arrangements.
