so, baiscally my question is how do i know how fast the processor is on here? i went into manage on my computer, and got this far "Processor - x86 family 6 model 7 stepping three genuineintel [sik] ~497 Mhz" Does that mean its running on less than a gig for processor? Any help would be apprieciated.

Dang, beat all you guys . 19 processes with msas, firefox, and spywareblaster running.

500MHz = 0.5GHz

Yep, you've got a half Gig processor. Two other ways to check.

On your desktop, right-click My Computer and click Properties. Under the General tab, it will tell you what type of processor, such as a Celeron or P4 500 Mhz, and it will give you the approximate speed it's running at.

You can go to Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Information and check the processor.

cool, thats what i thought, thanks for the reissurance (sp?)
