Shouldn't be a problem with that much RAM. WindowsXP used a lot ore RAM than 98 or
ME just to idle. Have you tweaked your startup processes the same in both computers?
HD speeds about the same?
You might search for posts on slow computers. Your systems sound much the same and
it takes a lot of poking around to find out where the difference is. Same number
of processes on each one? I'll do some looking and see if I can find a decent idea
to pursue.
