Jim,
Did you have the slow search issue right after they upgraded your memory and
gave you Win 7?
I've seen some people who have had that issue with a slow search in the
start menu. In a couple instances, it inexplicably resolved itself. On the
internet, some people reported having these issues with Win 7 after
installing either KB978506 or KB977074. You could try going to program
features and uninstalling either of those updates.
If that doesn't help, you could reinstall them.

Hi Doris:
Thanks for calling me a geek and saying that I am irresponsible and that I
am copping-out by asking my wife for assistance.
A tech person told me to do that, I know next time not to listen to what
they say until I read up and investigate the issue myself as I’ve always
done.
I am a self-taught computer user. I have always learned by trial and
error.
As far as these kinds of changes, I normally would not do them, but they
assured me that it would be OK to do so.
My problem started when I had the staples store install windows 7 on my
vista computer and I also had them install more memory as well.
Now, when I type a search into the search box on the start menu, I have to
type just about the whole word and press down arrow to get the search
results list to come up.
This works, but it is annoying. I have called Freedom’s Scientifics’ tech.
2 team about this issue. They have no idea why the search edit field is
not behaving correctly.
Since you are an advanced user, do you have any suggestions?
Also I want to thank you Steve for your reply.
Jim
