Full Specs are:
Asus P4SD-LA (Rebranded HP Crap)
Pentium 4 2.8Ghz
512mb RAM
80gb MAxtor Hardrive
Windows XP Home SP2
ATI Radeon 9200 LE
I ran the Virus scan just in case,Because just after i installed windows i was surfing the net without an Antivirus (What a dum idea that was).

Re: Computer running REALLY Slow
Try using the trial versions of "Tune-up utilities 2007" and "System mechanic 7 pro". Will really help you.
