I have never seen a computer operate with such low recources as yours. The worst I've seen was about 58% and the computer was freezing up within the first few minutes of operation. To cure it I removed almost all of the programs from start up, and from the toolbar near the clock. Although your other computer's recources are 75% with almost the same amount of items open, I suggest to try and remove them just to see what happens on your Pavillion.
     Another suggestion is: Click Start, then Run, then type, "msconfig" and click OK, click the Startup Tab and see how many programs are running upon startup. I have eight running on my computer and I usually run at 90% recources when I start my computer. (Warning: As I do not know how much computer knowledge you have, I  suggest you just look in this
 area, as one could cause bigger problems deselecting items in this area.)
     I have seen low recources on numerous computers and every time I removed most of the start up items, the recources usually jumped up to 85% or higher. I hope this works for you, good luck! Mario Vella
