A faulty hard disk shouldn't affect the download speed, but system performance may be affected. Are you saving a lot of things to that hard disk?Yup XP.
I don't know. the download speed seems to be faster. On average, how fast should the download speed be, for starhub cable?

You've just got 64MB, don't expect graphics to be good. It works fine as long as it's not 3D intensive. Don't believe, run a 3D benchmark test. It will fail horribly. I've gotten a lowly 6 points and I think it nearly hit negative.
Talking about jerky graphics, did you install your graphics drivers? Windows default drivers don't necessary work. Grab your motherboard CD, put it in and install the graphics drivers. It should be better now.
As for your Net speed... LatecomerX will deal with you.What is the minimum graphics card memory to run 3D games?
hmm... I think I may have solved the problem. I suspect my second hard disk to be faulty so it may have caused the poor performance of the whole system, including downloading.. Once the second hard disk is out, it appeard to be ok now.

If you see jerky movement in games or applications, it can be due to your graphic card. But the card in no possible way affects your download speed. Do you mind listing out what broadband connection you are on, and what do you define as a slow download speed? (If you're on dialup, I've got nothing else to say. )Maxonline.On average, how long does it take to download 10 MB files?

since it's a desktop. Just find out the motherboard model and get a compatible graphics card. It shouldnt cost more than $150 for a 128mb graphics card.Does the low graphics memory explains why I explain jerky experience, although the ram is around 1GB.

... maybe you should temporary use the old hard disk in you old computer in the P4 and see if the download speed is better?
... could be like LATEcomerX said... Windows could be automatically downloading stuff into your PC (windows update) and you could see if stopping Windows Update [b]temporarily increases your surfing speed...
[/b]Power supply unit will affect performance? I'm thinking if it is the 64MB shared VGA memory size affecting the performance.. as the OS is window xp.

2. Malware on your computer using your connection to do bad stuff. Especially if you have been visiting heh sites.
3. Background applications using your connection to transmit data. Maybe Bill Gates is sending some update to your Windows for X'mas.
4. You are downloading, uploading or both to the max. Are you running a torrent?
5. Many users on your HDB block are clogging in the same fat green pipe. Try downloading during non-peak hours like after 2 am.
6. The server you are downloading the files from is slow. You can't do anything about this other than to send a e-mail telling the webmaster that you will be sending infantry over to RhK his server.My operating system is newly installed one. I don't think is option 2 and 4 bah. Think last time I never configured my network. I am on router-cum-modem. Please advise. Thanks.

I stashed it away for so long, it should still be working... but no guarantees and maybe you might need to change the power supply .... no mouse, no KB, no monitor... no operating system (but I think XP loaded, but you don't get the license certificate)... want or not?
