Slow and Kludgy

Just installed OS9, it took several tries but finely got it running. But it is super slow compared to Windows XP and Ubuntu. Is there a way to turn off the animated graphic interface? Windows doesn't do this. Or is the multiple installations gumming it up?

What are your PCs specs? I see you used to have winXP so it must not be a powerful machine.

You can try the following:
1) Turn off the effects. To do this log out and from the login screen click the "Z" button and select "zorin no effects". Then log back in and see if that helped.
2) Install Zorin9 Lite that is meant for low spec PCs.
