Default Re: Protools is starving for cpu/ram and will not play

Details I see in the report which I don't like to see:
Integrated graphics(often a show stopper)
i3 cpu (a budget cpu, not a "power" cpu like an i7)
1 hard drive, and its 5400 rpm(Pro Tools needs to record to a separate 7200 rpm drive, NOT the system drive.) Try recording to the Lacie via a USB connection or eSATA(Windows 7 does NOT support firewire drives)
1 stick of RAM(which means no dual-channel mode and barely enough RAM to run Windows 7 alone).
Wireless(needs to be disabled when running Pro Tools).
Then there's all the required system tweaks, and a few other details such as:
set Pro Tools to always Run as Admin(should be installed that way too). Right-click on the PT icon>Properties>Compatibility, and check the boxes for: Always Run as Admin, Disable Desktop Themes and Disable Desktop Composition.
