      Well, I don't know (this doesn't sound to be too complex). What are the stats of your model? See Window > Model info > Statistics and make sure nested components is checked.
      Also, are there too heavy images among your textures?

        Hi
        Thanks for your reply!
        It was a construction I beam from the online 3d warehouse...?
        What can I do to make it move quicker?

            Well, that's not a small number but I have models with edges exceeding a million.
            Can you put your parts you don't currently work on onto layers that you can hide? Also turn off shadows.

              yeah ive cleared as many layers as possible or combined them,I actually only have 9 layers now. But it seems to be that the layer with the grouped components kills the model

                And what is the file size?
                Also, are these components nested in several levels deep?

                  the file size is 3.21 MB. I think I may have copied the component out several times then grouped them. I suppose the best thing to do is explode the whole lot of them and remake them 1 large component? as opposed to a component of any components?

                    No, keep the components components. Maybe you do not need them grouped (you can explode that group) but that should not really cause this either.

                    Have a look at this hardware spped test:

                        Well, those were kind of average results until SU 7.1 came out. Then this started to be the case:

                            You should be able to download it. What is the card brand and the processor speed?
