Chris:  Does this problem occur only with Jaws running?  If it happens
without Jaws you might to see what programs that you are not using in your
Start Up Menu.  If this is your problem then you will need to use ms config
to remove them.  I hope this will help.

Subject: sluggish with XP


> Hi all,
> I just got my drive reformated and windows XP installed on it.  I am
running service pack one, a 1.66 AMD processor, 512 of RAM, and Jaws 5.1.
> Sometimes I have to wait a few seconds and maybe even up to a minute for
things to happen.
> For example, hitting the windows key to bring up the start menu, bringing
up programs like outlook express and internet explorer, and even sometimes
when working inside a program like outlook express.  When reading a message,
it will start fine, but in the middle of the message, it will pause a few
seconds before going to the next line.  It will also do this when deleteing
a message.  Now during this pause, whether in a program or not, it is like
the system is temporarily froze.
> I do plan on upgrading my processor speed and RAM, but I did not know if
my current processor speed or RAM was causing the sluggishiness?
> It is just like it is taking some time for the computer to respond to the
command you have given it.
> Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated!
> Thank you in advance,
> Chris Chaffin
