Yes, it is a NEW computer. I think it may be the speed, but I am unsure how to change it.

I think there must have some regsitry errors and spyware in you PC to slow it down.
You need to try a registry cleaner to clean you PC.
Every time you install and uninstall software on your computer you create junk in the registry.You need to scan and clean your PC with registry cleaner.It is a powerful and useful tool to elinimate to the clutter and junk that builds up in your PC's registry from installing and removing programs, creating and deleting files and surfing online.Without regular system tune–ups, it's very likely your computer will slow,crash, full of error messages,leaving you with a costly computer–mechanic bill and lost data.
There are some comparison and review of registry cleaners

Working with a slow computer can be time consuming as programs/ applications take a long time to start. This problem is more pronounced in computers which have been used for 6 or more months. More information at http://fixit.in/slowcomputer.html

You probably have a combination of things causing this. You may not have enough RAM (1 GB is about standard min. requirement for newer games) and you may not have a good video card, or none at all if you have integrated graphics (256 MB is about standard now too). Also, a slow processor will cause some lag.

Your video card is not good enough, or the system memory is to low, or both, older system can not handel modern demanding video. If you have a new computer and it is doing that then your video drivers need re-installed. But I can not believe that a newer computer is having that problem. Unless it is having hardware failures or driver issues.

Either your computer is too slow, has too little memory, OR your anti virus software is slowing things down too much. Try to run it without the anti virus to start.

1. Check Your Internet Connection Speed
2. Check Your RAM (memory)

Sell your 486 and buy a new computer.
