thank you, I made it by taking peices from those doll makers and adjusting the heads and bodies and such to my liking in psp..I never make the things on the pages..MUCH to limiting of choices :)
It could be one of the programs having a memory leak which is eating resources. It could also be part of Windows' habbit of preloading DLLs like Office or IE stuff. It could be influenced by having a whole heap of kruft in your registry.
All of these are technical things that you really can't do anything about. Something like Norton/Symantec Win Doctor (from the Norton Utilities package) will remove junk from your registry and will help a little. Probably won't perform miracles. Latest Windows updates can but don't always help.
Try wiping the drives and reinstalling the OS from scratch.
Only if you have backupos for everything, of course, but i've found the jump in speed is amazing. Seems to get rid of bunches of crap that you didn't know were there.
alternatively, defrag, run cleanup (this is prolly obvious) and do a search for temps and cookies (cos cleanup *still* manages to miss half of them)
