You may have a bad hard drive if the above suggestions didnt work. Or you could possibly have some other hardware-related issue.

Some things you could try.

1. Create a new user and login with that one. Is it still slow? If not it may be something with your user account. A reinstall of Mac OS X could be advisable.

If your Mac is still slow with the new user account I would perform a hardware test. Reboot with your install DVD while holding the key D.
