David,
It also could be memory. If you are running XP Pro, get as close to 3
gig as you can, depending on slots mostly. If you are running Vista or
Win7 32bit, get as close to 8 gig as you can. If you are thinking of
upgrading, check your programs for compatibility with win 64 bit of
whatever flavor. Win7 64 is a much better program that the 32 bit
version. But as usual, not all is compatible and your mileage can vary.
Cheers

The USB 1.1 external HD's running through LR and saving on C drive is
painfully slow.
Twenty two conversion took 1 1/2 hours, mostly in lifting from the
external i am thinking.
Maybe $700 for a new PC build is not far off.
You can always buy a cheap PCI card to add some USB 2.0 ports to your
computer. If your external hard drives are USB 2.0 hi-speed
compatible, you may see an increase in the transfer speeds between
yout computer and the external HDs.
