Yes. Whenever I am on the Internet and I click on a link or move to another page or something and I am playing Windows Media Player at the same time whatever song or video I am playing, it slows down and makes a cutting noise. It's almost like if I dont have enough memory for both applications to be on. Any help would be very appricaited.

Hi Brian,
Try running both the Resource Meter (rsrcmtr.exe) and the System Monitor (sysmon.exe) to determine what your system is starving for. Set up the System Monitor to display "Memory Manager, Unused physical memory". You can minimize this monitor to a very small window and park in the corner of the Desktop out of the way.

Regards,
Ron

You could also run WINTOP to watch the CPU usage.

That could be a problem with Internet Explorer and its Temporary files getting clogged up. Try going in to Internet Options and clearing the Temporary Internet Files. Then go to System Tools and run Disk Clean-Up.

If that does not work, get and run the DELINDEX.BAT procedure from a boot diskette. Works wonders for IE related problems like these.
