If you're set with that much, you've got other issues at play.
I keep mine set at only 250Megs on a 120Gig drive, and have never had the BMP problem, or any speed issues with IE.
On the other hand, I can crash Netscape 7 simply by clicking too fast, lol.
Head over to Google Groups, and search for a couple of your symptoms, you'll probably find about 10,000 articles on the save as bmp problem alone.
