I've got two trivial problems that was wondering if anyone could help me with...

First off when I load up internet explorer (fully updated latest version) the thing takes a bloody age to start, I mean I'm talking about 20 to 30 seconds, which is silly because I have a 700Mhz processor and 512MB of RAM, so it's nothing on the power side that's causing it. It's making loading up new windows a real pain.

Secondly, from time to time, when I change between open windows, XP hangs. It's not a permanent thing, just both tabs on the taskbar get shaded and you have to wait 30 or so seconds before it switches to the window you wanted. This doesn't happpen all the time, but again it's a niggly little problem that's annoying me.

And stress is a killer :-)

Are you running a lot of programs in the background or while you are doing either of these?
Also how much memory do you have free on the hard disk that has windows on it? Do you have more hard disks and if so how full are they?
