So, I came to the conclusion that my computer takes eons to load up. Is there anything I can do to make my computer run faster? I usually have about 3 - 4 processes running at the same time (firefox, photoshop, a music player (itunes, zune, windows media) and maybe word), and sometimes my computer freezes, but the internet is fast and I dont have any viruses, so what would some of you techies recommend?

You either need to close some of the applications residing in RAM, or you need to purchase more RAM. It doesn't take much processing power to load a program. However, if you don't have enough RAM your computer will slow down while allocating some of the programs residing in RAM to your Virtual Memory (Hard Drive).
