Yah what he said . Cenozoite a celeron isnt the best of cpu's to begin with. You can overclock them and make them faster but they run hot to begin with and probly not a good idea for you. Hard drives have buffers and all kinds of speed enhancers stuff and not all are created the same. You should have never split it up in my opinion but to late now. 300 isnt nothing for swap space . NEVER ever ever allocate your drives wiith no room to spare . If you have a cd burner back up a bunch of stuff and make some breathing room and then do regular defrags. Rams your first priority . You really need to read some of the read me files for your poser stuff most things comeing out ( except for that wonderfull mousey ) want a hell of allot of ram just to load and that leaves you nothing to render with .
