This can mean many things. Please tell me your operating system (is it Win 98, Win 2000, Win XP, etc.) First and foremost run a virus check to make sure things are running bug free. SO you can only have one program open can mean a memory problem perhaps? As for your 1.3GB issue, please tell me the total space of your harddrive and the amount you've actually used. Normally hard drives have a limit to how much data you can store on them. For example, if I have a 40GB hard drive, I can only store 38GB of data on it.

Personally I would format and install Windows from scratch. Now you're probably wondering how to backup your data without a working cd burner. Simple solution is to delete the burner driver from device manager. Install a fresh copy of the the cd burner driver and reinstall Nero.

Disable System Restore.
Reboot into safe mode with networking.

Run antiviurs, run microsoft antiviurs, and run the free spyware/virusscan from

trendmicro

Reboot, if everything's still slow, do it all again. If the problem remains, back up your data and reformat.

Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to open up the Task Manager to see what applications are running. You may find some applications that are not responding, in which case you should "End task" them.

Click on your Start Menu, select "Run...", type in "msconfig" and press [Enter]. (nb. msconfig is not available in all versions of Windows.) Select the Startup tab in the System Configuration Utility to see which applications are running at startup. There are probably some spyware programs in there. Uncheck the ones that definitely look like spyware.

You probably have spyware and crap on your computer from downloading porn. You should install and run anti-virus, anti-spyware, popup-blocker, and firewall programs. You should also edit your autoexec.bat file to delete files that aren't supposed to be on your hard drive. Whenever you (re-)boot the computer, it will delete these spyware files. Use caution when doing this. You don't want to delete required system files! Since you are also a porn addict, backup your autoexec.bat file regularly on another drive or disk so you won't have to retype the entire list of files to delete, in case you have to reinstall Windows.

Your hard drive may be bloated. Windows may require the 1.3GB for virtual memory. Install another hard drive, and store all your data on it. Only install the operating system and applications to the c: drive. Reassign your My Documents icon to a new folder on the data-only drive.
