Is my laptop just not cut out for Maple?

I have 2GB of RAM and I lag pretty horribly. I don't download anything on here, routinely scan it for viruses and the like, and defragment my C: drive. A friend of mine said I should have more than enough RAM to run Maple and another chimed in saying she has 1GB RAM and runs Maple perfectly fine. I'm dumb when it comes to computers so talk to me like I'm five please :|

Sorry for the impending wall of images

 Spoiler

Without it running Maple (only Chrome, Puush, Fraps, and my antivirus)


Running Maple just standing in a small map, Chrome, Puush, Fraps, and antivirus


Turned Chrome off with everything else the same (Puush, Fraps, antivirus, and Maple)

What exactly is causing my Maple to run so slow? If it can't be alleviated, I'd just like to know what the possible causes are.
