Could you better define 'runs slow'? 

For example, does it boot slowly?  Does it respond sluggishly?  Does it 
just seem to be slow to draw things on the screen or does it seem to be 
the whole system?  Have you run any benchmarks?  Did you used to have a 
different version of linux on there and/or Windows, and it didn't run 
slowly then?

Help us help you.
