Long pauses when opening files and other operations with emacs 23. and windows 7 |

I recently migrated to windows 7 and installed emacs 23.2.1. Many
operations cause emacs to stall for more than 10 seconds. For
example, opening a file usually causes this. display-about-screen
(ctrl-h, ctrl-a) always causes this. ctrl-g has no effect. Any
suggestions? Emacs is basically unusable.
I have cygwin installed, but not on my path. Nothing else special
about the system.
I have my $HOME set.
after looking around I tried adding (setq w32-get-true-file-attributes
nil) to my .emacs. No help there.
I am doing this with a network connection. That doesn't seem to
matter.
