Hey guys,

Help me identify my problem!

My comp feels really slow... it's a 160 GB HDD (40GB as bootcamp) and when formating the mac os X partition, it still feels kinda slow after 1-2 days (after installing the apps I need).

I also notice that when using flash, it's just really slow.. when loading a youtube video, when loading it's all slow but once loaded, it's generally lag-free...

I'm wondering if it can be a faulty HDD?

The comp also has little ram (2GB).. Can it be the problem?
