Could be a load of different things, check if your harddrive is running in pio mode or not, it shouldnt it shoudl be running in ata100 if thats what you got or higher if you got sata. The other thing you should see if your wireless card has some firmware update, some do, and it helps a lot, i had a laptop that had bad connection and then got the firmware update and everything worked 10 times better.
