It's not the make or model of computer, it's what's under the hood. Quality motherboard like Abit or Asus. Latest chipset and CPU, tons of RAM, and a serious video card, just for starters. And for serious 3D work in big applications like Maya and Max, you'll need to link several computers together or rendering will take hours. What you need is a good workstation. Photoshop doesn't need as much horsepower 'cause it's 2D. There's local shops that'll buzz you up a good workstation for maybe 3 or 4 grand. Even an average Dell with 1 gig of RAM and a good video card is sufficient for Photoshop. Cost about $1200.00.

XP.. with at least 512 MB ram memory ... 2.53 GHz Pentium 4... That would be minimum requirements for most software and hardware these days. The more memory the better..

Your computer seems to have good enough specifications, its all that crap you're running in the background. Go to Start>Run and type in msconfig the run window. Go to the startup tab and uncheck everything. You should also scan your computer for malware.

Apple computers are built for intense graphics applications. Which is why Hollywood uses them exclusively for CGI Animations! If you can afford one, get one. It was made just for you!
