hmm, dunno, my desktop seemed fine. although I didn't try and do anything while watching it, but it buffered up fairly quickly and ran smoothly.

2.53ghz p4, 1gig ram, 3Mbit dsl connection

I don't get lag all the time with my 8103, but sometimes it seems to happen randomly. I believe this is NOT a problem with your PC though, I think it's just a Windows Media Player problem. On my other desktop, WMP will lag a lot at random times too. That's probably because WMP is trying to gather all sorts of information from the internet that you don't need.

Use media player classic.
