Windows Update, man. Do all your Windows Updates that are pending. And if you don't have a wired/wireless router at home between you and your ISP (Rogers, Bell, etc)... I seriously suggest that you go out and buy one. Some new Bell hardware may have an integrated router built into it. You might want to check any documentation you have on your ISP's hardware.
Questions here are always welcome - pics too if you don't know!
XP on my (now old) work Dell Latitude D820 with 4GB RAM and 100GB SATA 7200RPM drive: not bad, not as quick as you'd expect.
Vista Business SP1 64-bit on my new Dell Latitude E6400 with 4GB RAM and 160GB SATA 7200RPM drive: faster than I expected, still need to install more stuff, but WTF with the 14GB Windows folder???? :blink: It's probably all the install binaries from the Vista DVD, but still... ick.
