You're just doing this? "I can get my games loaded and running, check my e-mail and message forums, play music and DVD's"
Shouldn't be having any trouble with that stuff. Is it running slow at particular times or just randomly? If it's just in a particular program or two, it could be a 32 bit program trying to talk to 64 bit Windows. If it's in some decent games with all the details turned up, it could be your video card.
The other thing that hasn't been mentioned is what model your CPU is? (The Ghz size by itself means nothing, as the architecture has changed for CPUs and they started recycling Ghz sizes while still having more powerful chips, so the model is what matters now)
