Decided to reinstall last Friday without doing the disk partitions manually, and now it is performing beautifully! I don't understand why disk partitions would slow things down, and neither did anyone I asked about it, but that is the only thing I did differently. Not sure if there were also problems with network settings (it wasn't giving me any error messages), but it seems to be all cleared up now. (I hope I am not speaking too soon this time!)
Thanks,
