I'm in charge of fixing computers at my school, and am learning as I go. I've got a Dell running Win2K that is super slow. I've cleaned it up and it runs fairly well before I connect it to our network. Then it CRAWLS. I don't have a win2k disk to reload (it was misplaced and everything else is XP).
What should I try first to try to save this machine. We can't afford to replace it.
