I just did a dual boot with xp earlier and it boots up fine except its really slow opening windows and such
like when i try to get on the net it opens network monitor and the window dosen't fully materialize for like ever
and its unresponsive....it does this with a few other progs too.. so i just use xkill to close them.
What would make them do that a bad install?
I'm not sure i'm new to linux. If anbody has any info i would appreciate it!

Well i didn't think about it at the time but my hardware wasn't listed as compatible.
I'm using a ecs k7s5a board. It wasn't listed a compatible hardware could that be the problem?
