Post subject:  Yet again, another problem

here it is, i start my pc up and everything lags my music stutters and distorts my mouse turns on but only until the xp loading screen is done and my pc lags around when im doing my everyday tasks. Could this be a harddrive problem? and i just upgraded to a better video card and my powersupply is probably in the 300 watt area, but to see if this was the problem i unhooked all case fans (Front, sides and back fans) to see if it would make a difference, not liek the fans matter anymore cuz this card stays nearly room temp. Does anyone have any ideas.

try a defrag maybe? make sure you installed the drivers to your new card correctly?

Since you are using XP, do a Control/Alt/Del, then hit T for taskmanager. After TM starts click on the Process tab, then click twice where it says CPU(this will sort the process listing from the highest to lowest CPU usage). Just watch and see what is grabbing the CPU when the system lags. How much memory do you have on your PC? If you don't have enough, or have alot of stuff running in the system tray it could cause the system to run out of physical memory and start swapping out memory chunks to the hard drive.
