Thanks all.

    I'd glad to hear about the lag. Well done.

    Speed is always a problem with eircom.
    Check out www.speedtest.net and see what results they give you.

    download 2704 kb/s, upload 320 kb/s

    would this be normal speeds?
    My signal strength says 54 Mbps.

    since i got rid of bluetooth starting up each time i turn on my laptop, how do i go about using the bluetooth again? I just tried to bluetooth a photo to my phone like I always did and it just says "bluetooth device not working". How do I turn it back on whenever I want to use it?

    Have you looked in the Control Panel to see if there is a relevant icon?

    If you can't find it, do as I suggested (previously) for listing running applications and untick the application for Bluetooth.
    Also see in that list if it has a saved (on your hard-disk) location mentioned.
    Look in there and see if there is an item you can click on to start it up or turn it off.

    Its just a case then of creating a shortcut on your desktop (or elsewhere) to use it later too.
