It works now after I turned the computer off and restarted it. Might have gotten overheated or somethin considering my mom leaves it on weeks at a time lol

If you're running windows 98 ya need to reboot daily to keep eveything going smoothly..XP ya can leave on for days on end, but it doesn't hurt to turn it off and let it rest now and then. These computers we run at home are on probably 20 hours a day ......lol

If your computer is running slow then it probably needs defragged... so ya maybe defragging the harddrive every month will help it run smoother... also sometimes you just have to totally format the harddrive and reinstall (make sure you delete the current partion)..
Updating your drivers let me know what chipset you have is it nvidia? if so you can get the drivers at nvidia.com
