Do NOT want you to do a format and install. Go to start--all
programs --accessories--system tools---disk Clean-up.

Hi,

I have windows XP SP2, Intel 1.86 GhZ, 1.5 GB memory (and almost 10 GB
of free space in C:)

Im facing a strange problem with my corporate laptop for the past 4/5
months.

When ever I try to do a "Save as" from PDF, any of the MS Office XP
application, Notepad etc, and try to choose desktop location from the
Save as dialog box then my laptop takes a long time to respond (as
much as even 1 or 2 minutes or more)

I have deleted all my temporary files, cookies etc and still see no
increase in response time.

Can somebody suggest a resolution.
