new install XP pro and photoshop problem

I newly installed XP pro and photoshop 7.01. The problem is the browser takes 5 min to load the thumbnails , does anyone have an idea what is going on

DDR ram 512Mb Pentium 4

Thanks in advance

If the image hasn't been thumbnailed before on that system, it takes time to create it...

512 megs is barely enough to run the operating system. RAM's cheap...buy more.
