Hi there
I am having a mare with my PC and Im unsure what the problem is.
Doing things other than the internet seem ok...(not that it gets used for much tho
)
But when using the internet I feel like I am back on pay as you go dial up.......it is painfully slow. We use cable (Virgin Media) and pay 24.99 a month so I am sure it should be better than it is.
It has a 60gig hard drive and 31gig is free.....unsure what DDRRAM (or whatever) it has but its only 2 yrs old.
I have virus scanned it and spyware checked and killed off any nasties....I have cleared all cookies and temp internet files....aswell as run a defrag and it doesn't appear to have helped.
I can't/won't run Windows updates as I have a SHHHHH *copied* version of XP but I do have SP2 too!
I have had to stop trying to download stuff as it takes an age.
I am connected using a wireless PCI card (DWL G520) with the router upstairs. Its a D-Link Airplus DI624 that says it can run at 108mbps. I dont think I am getting 40 KPS......
Any ideas to speed it up - other than wiping it and starting it again!?

editted to add that after hitting post it took 90 secs to do it with 2 page cannot be displayed errors (where I had to go back and rehit post!)
