Whenever I use anything that has to do with Windows Explorer it takes 30+ seconds to load. Clicking My Documents, Control Panel, My Computer, Anything like that takes an unusually long time to load up. Everything else on my computer works normally and loads very quickly. I have over a gig of ram (of which im only using about 1/6) and a core duo processor so i dont know what it could be? thanks - James
