Kodi Extremly Slow

I have the latest version of Kodi, 17.3, but it’s running extremely slow on my win 7 machine. I,m talking about a fresh installed version. It momentarily freezes when I click on different settings and it takes forever to to download my repositories. For the life of me I can’t figure this out. I’ve already done three fresh installations with the same issues. Don’t think it’s my machine, my other programs seem to run normally. If anyone has any suggestions, it’ll be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
