This could be the biggest issue. Are you running any background programs? The video is borrowing memory from your 256mb, along Windows and Hoster running, I'm surprised that you are not having more problems. I bet your hard drive never stops. Have you added more songs? The added hard drive space will take room away from your swap file that windows uses in place of ram. The only way I could see Hoster running at all with this little amount of system memory is if your song list was only a couple of hundred songs. First thing to do would be to make sure you have 50% of your C:\ drive free for windows swap file. Next would be to add more system ram.

Seriously, I am really surprised that this is running Hoster at all. I would definitely hold on to that computer, Dell must have done something very right.
