Recently the hard drive in my bf's laptop had died a painful death, so, I replaced it for him. He has a Gateway w340ui (aka mt3707)

Originally it was running Windows vista home basic, but after replacing the hard drive I was forced to put ultimate on it, twas the only vista disk I had.

the hard drive is practically the same as what it came with originally, the only thing different is the os

after doing all of this though, the internet, only while surfing the net, is much slower, and when he plays wow it will kick him off sometimes saying that it can't load some of the textures. Also, on start up, it doesn't always find windows...

Help plz???
