    Which CPU (MHz/GHz) and how much RAM? (Click Start, right-click My Computer and select Properties, look on the bottom right of the General tab).

    With that configuration it will run slow. Read the XP minimum system requirements and you will find you are way under-resourced.. Your choices would be to go back to W98 or preferably upgrade your system..

    If you upgrade the ram to atleast 128MB, preferably 512MB or more, it'll perform OK.
