Lately my Vista machine(with IE7) has been painfully slow when surfing the internet lately. I commonly have between 4 and 7 IE tabs open at the same time and my Vista machine is slow whenever I have more than three tabs open. I have no problems surfing quickly doing the same things on my laptop machine that is running XP SP3 and IE7. The laptop's specs are much less too, 1.8 Ghz P4, 1GB RAM.
I have scanned my Vista machine with Avast Anti-virus and Trend-Micro Anti-Virus(online scanner), Spybot S&D, Ad-Aware SE Personal and Spyware Terminator for spyware used CCleaner and a registry cleaner to remove any clutter. My computer is definitely clean but something is holding me back.
Specs of my Vista machine are in my signature. Usually my physical memory usage is between 1.2 and 1.5 GB. I bought another GB of RAM for it but my motherboard is messed up and it won't recognize more than 2 GB of RAM so I wanted to check with you guys before I go buying a new motherboard in order to run 3GB of RAM.
