Yeah, but my CD-Rom drive was already replaced, as well as my internet and sound card, and my motherboard (twice). And the computer isn't 3 years old yet. :-\

I hate those computers that are always with something wrong. A few years ago, I had one that every 3 months the anti-virus didn't work properly. So, I had viruses all the time and my familly spent a lot of money to solve the problem.

my good old toshiba laptop, nearly 6 years, and with one optimized XP installation, runs faster than when it had the millenium xD
the secret: nLite

this proggy allows you to 'shrink' the xp, my cd is only 150mb, rather than the almost 500mb. i've cut many stuff i don't need, like the 10mb's of graphic drivers my lappy don't use, and many more stuff.

Well, I reisntalled Windows already (I returned yesterday :P) and my CPU usage is still at 50%, though I think I know the reason.

This new motherboard has an on-board graphics card, which I didn't have in the old one. I'm guessing that is the problem, because of 2 reason:
-The system idle process is always at a high CPU value (meaning that part isn't used)
-I was playing a Nintendo 64 rom on an amulator, and the emulator detects CPU usage. It says that core was at 34% and video around 15%.

Still, I'd like a confirmation on this, if you know, guys...
