How much RAM?
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?

When I click on drive C: in Explorer it takes my machine ages to show
the file directory.
If I am in Internet Explorer and go to Bookmarks and hold my cursor
over the down arrow it moves at about 1 file per second.
These are the things I have rules out:
Hard drive has 44 Gb left on it
Internet Security shows no sign of viruses
I have run a registry cleaner
I also ran CCleaner.
I tested the memory but after hundreds of passes no fault was found.
I am no expert but I am wondering whether it could be a fault on the
hard drive or other hardware problem?
I use XP with SP2 on a Dell Dimension 2400.
Any suggestions welcomed.
