    core 2 duo 9300
    4gb ram
    500 gb hardrive
    8600 graphics

    i was hoping that this would blow my desktop clean away as my desktop is amd 2500 barton 3 gb ram runninig xp, when using newsbin pro on my desktop i can download at a constant 18.8 Mbps but the same programme with same setting running on my xps will only get 13.5 Mbps, is this an xp vista problem, i am wondering if i should put xp laptop , but i have installed lots of files and programmes now so i dont want to format.
