Computer Running Slow…
Over time the performance of your PC / Laptop may seem to slow down. Follow our three simple tips to improve your computers performance:
1) Run a full virus scan to check and eliminate any virus that may be affecting performance
2) Conduct regular housekeeping to remove any unwanted data or unused programs
3) Upgrade the memory – most PCs can be upgraded for a very low cost, far more economical than buying a new PC!
Check your Memory before upgrading your software…
Windows XP professional requires 256M RAM to run, before you run any other programs such as office or word. If you have installed new software onto an old PC, you may need to extend the memory.
