9/27/2010 8:28:38 PM Internet explorer runs extremely slow and the boot time is quite long. The pc is maxed out at 1 gb of memory and over time has continued to slow down. I have removed all unnecessary programs (data,music etc). There are times when internet explorer simply stops running and has to be stopped, cpu utilization also can stay at 100% for extended periods.

12/14/2014 1:15:56 PM Computer runs great except when running video from Hulu or YouTube. It will start fine but then the video will begin to lag behind the audio as it stalls and slows down. During this time the audio runs continuous and uninterrupted but the video lags way behind the audio and never catches up.
