is board slow with XP & 56k

   my PC has been upgraded and now runs XP, but still with 56k.
I notice that when I enter a topic the posts appear super quick but the reply box sometimes does not appear, unless I come out & go back into the topic.
Is this simply because a 56k modem cannot cope?

	I suspect it is your PC at fault. Is XP fully up to date?
