    In addition download process explorer and see what is using the most RAM

    download, run, then post the results.

    Process Explorer

    Always check for virus before you install a download.

    I doubt the clean boot method will fix my problem as I only have 3 third party services running.

    I am just passing through. Might I ask if you are using homegroup? and do you have a non win 7 machine included?

    Homegroup is for win 7 machines only. If you have a mixed environment the workgroup model is preferred

    Changing from homegroup to workgroup is fairly easy. search the tutorials for leaving a homegroup

    This is the only machine I have but I'm dual booting with XP. I just checked and apparently I am using homegroup but I don't share anything.

    Just left the homegroup.

    You might want to,, just for the heck of it,, try uninstall and reinstall NIC Drivers
