    What percentage of free space is on each of the drives, Harry?

    Are they really separate physical drives or just 2 partitions on the same drive?

    A few things come to mind, The C drive is now badly fragmented, hdd free space is less than about 25% or perhaps Windows prefetch is struggling trying to find the correct files to load.

    Following up silas' suggestion on maintenance should fix some of those things.
