Well it all goes down to what you're doing on your PC. If there are a lot of things running it will lag. Seems to me you don't have that great of a system anyways. Right click on "Computer" in the Start menu and post a screen shot of that page. RAM and maybe a CPU upgrade will probably help a lot.

Ok. Well are you running a lot of things at once? That causes slow downs. Rule of thumb for me is "If you aren't using it, close it." Did slow downs recently start happening?

Yeah that shoulden't be laggy at all might as well do it as long as you dont have anything you want saved thats the easy way out

No doubt there are probably 100 things running in the background that are installed to start on start up.

How would reinstalling the OS help? All that does is wipe all the data on the computer and leave just the OS. It won't help speed up a PC in any way. Only reason you would see a speed increase by doing this is because there is nothing on the computer that requires intensive CPU or RAM usage. Do you know what you're talking about?
