[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1308168, member: 46727"] You might also check the computer to see what else is running in the background. The very nature of a netbook with the Atom processor is such that it will slow down extensively if a lot of things are going on at once. I know you mentioned that your mother doesn't run a lot of programs, but she might have an Anti-Virus app running. AV software is needed on a Windows machine but with a weak CPU like the Atom, you have to be choosy as to which one to use. Some AV software intercedes with everything and that sounds like what's happening to the HP netbook. [/QUOTE]
