You need more RAM.
512MB will do, 1GB will do better.if this is a desktop computer, you might also considering upgrading your graphics card IF you are on an integrated graphics card so that you have 100% of the memory supplied by the ram sticks for windows and not being eaten by graphics card.

But do get the memory upgrade first! That's the main thing at this point!Hi Lissy, I have same problem but can u tell me how you got all that infomation you posted under "here are the stats".
