It could be a number of factors, based on the info you've posted it's
difficult to say: Is it just the 1 query which is running slow , or all

As a starting point, Run the query and capture the Execution Plan - analyse
the Plan to see whether this gives you any hints.

Check disk space for log files and data files
New queries added in the last two days that may be hitting it?
Do you have other programs that use the same server?
Use Performance Manager to see what is the bottleneck Disk/CPU...
If CPU use Task Manager to see what process is choking the CPU.

Just a starting point. Not enough info to pinpoint your problem.

I almost forgot the most important one... Profiler. Run this when your
system is slow and see what is going on.

Check the server properties to see how much memory the server is
actually using. If it's a dedicated SQL box, then increase the
minimum memory usage to "nearly all of it", and enable "stay in
physical memory". (I ran across an issue in this area just this
morning - I suspect it'll be a Big Win, we'll know by the end of
