Thanks very much for the advice so far.

" Does CS3 recognize that you have 2 cores?"

I'm not sure, do you know how I can tell it that I do?

EDIT: Um, I must have misread something because I just ran a scan for RAM upgrades at Crucial and it says I have 2 gig of RAM. Here's what the report said:

• Maximum Memory Capacity:  2048 MB
• Currently Installed Memory:  2048 MB
• Available Memory Slots:   N.A.
• Number of Banks:  4
• Dual Channel Support:   N.A.
• CPU Manufacturer:  GenuineIntel
• CPU Family:   Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 2.66GHz Model 4, Stepping 7
• CPU Speed:  2672 MHz

I had a problem with some bad RAM a while back, which probably led to me forgetting how much working RAM I actually had. Sorry about that!

So now I really don't know what the problem could be. Maybe the demo runs slower than the full version for some reason?
