WinXP- When i start selecting stuff it lags

[AdamDuritz99]

I asked in OS forum, but noone hardly awnsers there

OK you know the light blue shade that comes up when you take your mouse and select many items. It lags really bad, does this happen to anyone else? Is there a fix. My pc runs smooth besides that.

peace

I will answer in OS only. Cross-posting is BAD!

Specs on your computer? Maybe you should turn off "show contents while draggin" and stuff like that.

XP sucks, you're Bill Gate's bitch. Get Linux.

Yah Im not too impressed with xp. I have the same problem also when I selecting a bunch of MP3's it bogs down a bit. Thats with 512 megs of ram and a p3 550@770. Pretty pathetic if you ask me. I will be switching to Linux in 3 months when I get back from my deployment in Bosnia. Till then I will be using lame xp and buying some beginner linux books to get me started.
