You have a Celeron.....that is the problem. It is only ment to handle one program at a time. A normal CPU is ment to take 8 lanes of traffic but a celeron takes those 8 and narrows it to 4. Hence why it is recomended to be used as a web browser or single app. processor.

the only difference between a true p4 & a celeron version is the amount of ram cache on the cpu. 1st p4 celerons had 128k cache compared to a p4 having 512k. the celeron d has 256k cache & a prescott dye.

Sorry, I was mislead on this one. I thought that Celerons only condensed the work that a normal Intel did.
