My laptop turns on pretty fast, but when i try to open any program like MS word or Internet Explorer, I have to wait 30 minutes for it to start. Once the programs start, my laptop runs normally.

I have already fixed my start-up programs, performed a virus scan and cleaned my registry. What else should I do? I cant always wait for 30 minutes everytime I need to use my laptop! Help!

I wanted to get a data card for my internet connection but I can't seem to find where the data card would go. Can somebody help? My friend said it should definitely have one as it is a brand new laptop.

If my pc has been unused for a while, even minutes at times, it freezes upon trying to logon. I have to reboot everytime to use it. Also I always get a popup that says "Some startup programs have been blocked". I've clicked on the popup and it has the item that is blocked, but I don't recognize it so I won't open it.

Ok, let's say I want to burn a dvd, on my single core processor takes me 45 mins, What may be the difference frame it takes when you have a dual core processor that runs at 2.66 GHz, 1066 front side bus and about a 4 MB L cache.
You know, I kind of want to upgrade my Dell 4700 series by swapping the motherboard, processor, RAM, and power supply. I want to keep all the remaining devices.
So is there anyone who can sort of predict the difference when it comes to burning with dual core?
Thank you guys.
Josh.
