Why does my computer suck so bad?


Question Posted Thursday October 25 2007, 1:51 am

So I just got my laptop in March and it came with Windows Vista Basic. I have an Acer (don't know specific name) with a intel pentium dual processo. Anyways.. I have the normal programs on my laptop.. plus I downloaded Microsoft Office and Limewire. I don't even have 100 songs downloaded. I've tried freeing up as much space as possible and it's no where near full. My computer takes about 10 minutes to load then like 3 or 4 minutes to get the internet working. Why is my computer running so slow??? I've also changed my color scheme to Windows Basic.

Try going to "Disk Cleanup," then to "Disk Defragmenter." This should help clean up uneeded space, if you haven't already done this. Or you may have too many programs running on your computer, so take off any of them that you don't use.
