slow video and page loading for vista home premium
Hello, I've just purchased my new HP computer from bestbuy a week ago. I did have the geeksquad perform a security setup which should take care of optimizing it. The OS is Vista Home Premium and it's got 3 gigs of ram. The processor is AMD Athlon(tm) 64 x2 Dual Core Processor 5600+2.80 GHz. It's got the latest version of IE and Windows Media Player on it. The problem is it is loading some videos and some webpage very slow (it's even slower then my old computer with windows 98). I've even ran the regCure and spySweeper on it and it doesn't seem to help. Isn't a windows Vista problem or is possibly wrong? Please help, what else can I do to help with it's slow video and page loading problem?

thanks for replying and sharing elnasty. I will try that out. Could that be the cause of the slowness of downloading or playing video?
