Vista - all on line games lag

I just bought a dell inspiron 518 desktop computer for my son with vista.
Every online game toontown, ruinscape, zwinky have significant delays. The
wireless router to our fios network is fine, itunes songs download in
seconds, and internet webmail is fast.

We never had any of these problems on his old, 512ram $300 laptop running
xp. What is wrong vista an on line gaming? Is there something I can adjust
so these games don't lag? The specs are Inspiron 518 Intel® Pentium®
