Well, you can upgrade to XP if you want (though does the MX400 have XP
drivers? better check), and it will possibly cure your problems, simply
because you're installing fresh, but reinstalling ME would have the same
effect (if any).

Your HD and CPU benchmarks are ridiculous though. I suspect some sort of
pest and/or incredibly crappy system settings.

But first things, first:

Did you disable HT properly ?

Is it still slow in SafeMode?

P4P800 Asus Motherboard
Geforce 2 MX400 (From old computer)
DVD & Cd Burner (From old computer)
Maxtor 40Gb 2Mb cache 7200 RPM 100ATA (From old computer)
IBM 12 Gb 2mb cache 7200 RPM 66ATA (From old computer)
O/S Win ME

My computer is choppy in everything and very slow. My CPU
temperature never goes over 49C / 120F. I have no
hardware conflict and have all up to date Drivers.

I have run the PCpitstop benchmark and some others and
obtained those results:

-My harddrives score very low at 0.36 MB/sec
(I had run scandisk and Defrag before testing session)
-My CPU load is alway at 100%
(I had disable CPU cooling software)

This new computer run slower than my PIII 500 MHz. I had
to disable HT tech because ME doesn't support it.

What can I do to get some speed:
Is my video card slowing everything down?
Should I update to Windows XP?
Any solutions out there....

Thanks
