Flash 8 very SSSLLOOWWW

I know this is not a serious problem but it's driving me crazy. Trying to play Flash games, specifically MotoCross or BMX, on Mousebreaker or similar sites the game runs very, very slow on my Compaq laptop. Pentium III 1.2 with 512 ram and plenty of hard drive space. I have downloaded and re-loaded Flash 8 with no improvement. I even tried another browser instead of IE 6 (Opera). All software and drivers are current. The game plays fine on my Sony Vaio or my Mac G5. Help please before I go nuts! I can't figure it out.

Update the video drivers and get the latest DirectX, Shut down all other programs running while you are playing those games. If flash 8 still gives you a problem get a previous version and try that.

Video drivers are current. So is Direct X.
