[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1546915, member: 56379"] Both the 1gig of ram and the 15gig free on a 250gig HD (94% full)...are both real bottlenecks. I might even hazzard to say that the almost full HD is the bigger problem...with the 1gig of ram not far behind. The Mac OS needs a certain amount of free HD space for "swap files"...and...that 15gig of free spacr is probably fragmented all over the HD...making read/writes VERY slow. If you correct these two things...you're going to think that you have a brand new computer!!!:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
