I got an old laptop from my friend. It only has 3 gb of memory. Most of the
memory has been taken up by duplicate programs that I do not need. I
tried
many ways to get rid of them: deleting from the program list (computer
prompts me to insert program disk, which I don't have), deleting from the
core files (which I don't really want to do, because I am not that savy.)
I
am also unable to format the hard drive. I attempted it, but it did not
work. Any suggestions?
