This is a well-known problem. NCU has a problem with the speed of
state of the art (and even no longer state of the art) PCs. Usually
this can be fixed by starting one or more instances of slowdown.exe,
which you can find at http://www.unna.org. You can start this program
multiple times, each instance will make your PC slower. My 1GHz Athlon
PC, also running XP like yours, usually needs 1-2 instances of
slowdown.
Be aware that the connection tends to become less reliable when the
Newton is not connected to a power adapter and the batteries are
almost discharged.
