Tell us a bit about your computer. Find your original system specs and post them.

You can clean your temporary files to make your computer go faster.
to do this: Download and install CleanUp! NOTE: Do NOT run this program if you have XP Professional 64 bit edition. If you're unsure please do not run it! Open Cleanup! by double-clicking the icon on your desktop (or from the Start > All Programs menu). Set the program up as follows: Click "Options..." Move the arrow down to "Custom CleanUp!" Put a check next to the following (Make sure nothing else is checked!):
Press the CleanUp! button to start the program. It may ask you to log-off/reboot at the end, if it does please do so. You can also defrag your harddrives. To do: Start - All Programs - Accessories - System Tools - Disk Defragmenter, there click on the disk windows is installed, ( defaultly it is the C: disk) and then click on defrag. Good Luck, Thunderbird1988 |
