    Not a lot to go on here. But sometimes pc's get cluttered with software you dont need or temp files

    Get ccleaner for a start to clean temp
    Uninstall anything you never use
    Defrag your hard drive
    Possibly get more ram you will have to check you get the right sort

    Check the amount of RAM installed too. Flying Windows key + Pause Break

    Are you running Norton Antivirus/Internet Security?
