I'm running broadband cable on a 97 compaq laptop with windows 98 and it works good with effort.
You might try unplugging from the net, turning off your protections, and doing disk clean, disk scan, and defrag. If you have your backup disks for you base programs, you can try deleting all the junk they give you that you will never use. For me that was stuff like games, and media player stuff, and stuff I can't even remember like money programs. But this computer is just for the net. When I get money, I'll get a big fancy one for everything.
Don't forget to restart and put all your protection back on before you reconnect to internet. Maybe this will help some.
