My system is running very slow. When i check the performance with the Windows Task manager it shows 100% CPU usage, but when i check the active processes it does not show any significant memory hog.
I have run Norton Anti virus and the system came up clean.

You can avoid many of these Windows problems with Linux. Linspire eases the transition for new users
