RE: System very slow, very difficult to access server, cpu usage low??

Actually about the best utility to use is "event viewer",you'll probably find
warnings/errors about the OS.Click on one,get details,click on the url,this
opens kb help/support,usually with a fix.Also,clean out temp & windows temp
files,disk clean up,defrag.
