the best thing to do is to do an install from scratch.  first back up 
anything that you need to, then format the disk and install

try unplugging any usb and firewire cables you don't need for start up

some hp printer drivers have caused slow down in jaguar so make sure 
you have the latest drivers

good luck and let us know what you did and the result

thanks, George
