Whenever i switch users and log on to another the comuter proccesses very
slow. i have a fast processor so i don't think its a hardware imcompitence
problem. it might have to do with an error message about 'winstat', or some
variation of that name
 
Hi Dan,

When you switch users, the other account is suspended to ram, which makes
that much less available to the current user. If the system has a small
amount of ram installed (say 256MB), then you should expect a slower
response. Increasing the installed ram can help with this problem, and so
can having the suspended user shut down programs before switching.
