BIOS: Default System BIOS
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz (8 CPUs), ~2.7GHz

Thats my computers information if it helps with anything, and Im curious what effects the speed. I know ram is one of the biggest things with speed but is there anything else that changes it? Does the amount of available space make it run faster or slower? Im just looking for some help because it has seemed a little slow lately.
Also I have noticed a few issues and wondering if they are serious. I have heard from some people that it is just vista but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask here.
1. The computer apparently crashes when in standby. This has never happened when it was in use, but some times I will come back and it says it recovered from an unexpected shutdown.
2. Cant connect to the internet, even though it is hard lined to my router. I will have to restart it before it can connect again. It just says no connection found. This happens every once in a while, and I think it happens after it is in standby or does the crash. Im not sure, it hasnt happened for a while.
Any tips or information is greatly appreciated.
