My computer is about 7 years old. Running windows xp home. Service pack 3..
It is a pentium 4 cpu 1.80 GHz and 256 MB of ram.
It has gotten so slow that I wait for it to print or wonder if I really
clicked a button at times. I also get a lot of virtual memory messages. It
has a 40 gig hard drive with 16 gig of free space. My cable internet
connection is like a dial up these days.
I have thought about cleaning the hard drive as in formatting and
reinstalling windows and programs I need, but then all those updates need to
be redone. Is there an easy way to clean up the hard drive so i can remove
all those little unknown things that mysteriously get there?
Not ready to buy a new computer as I don't want Vista and also don't want to
spend the money as this computer is more than adequate for what I need.
Thanks.
what kind virus protect? do you have registry tool?
