Have you done a disc clean up, and a defragment?
you could also try running a spyware detecter (adaware is a good one) as spyware and tracing software can slow your system down a lot.

I will try your suggestions i'm having to use my daughters laptop in the meantime as mine is so slow. Thank you
Have you got two security progs running against each other, if so delete one.
Have you tried Disk Defragmenter and Disk Cleanup ? Do you have a virus filter in use ? Try disabling it. If you have created a lot of individual files, try bundling them into folders.
