Default Slow running laptop or internet ?

I have an old ACER laptop, Windows XP Pro and use Firefox.

My internet connection generally poor( TIT)

Generally have about 8 windows open at one time.

It is slow to switch between windows.

Sometimes freezes.

It worked fine in Italy last Oct/Nov on a good connection and was checked by someone who I believe should know what they are doing.
It got the OK

yet here in Thailand has problems.

No understanding of how these things work but can`t get my head around how a poor connection would affect switching between windows.

As I type this there is a delay between typing and words appearing.

I`ve a couple of crash reports from Adobe yet updated recently.

If it is my laptop, I`d buy a new one.

How can I know?

Simple as possible pls.


Thks.
