Hello,
I'm new to all of this computer stuff, but I just wanted to introduce myself and my problem. :/
My name is Jessica, and I am completely dumb when it comes to computers.
I got a Dell Dimension 4600 last year, and it seemed to work okay, but now it's slowwwww.
I'm on a router split with 2 other computers, and those work just fine. However, when I click on IE, the homepage loads up fine without a problem. It's when I type an address in the bar...it takes awhile for the page to load up. Also, when I click on My Computer, it takes forever for it to load up too!
I've renewed my antivirus subscription, ran Adaware, cleaned disk, defragged and did a TurboMem scrub. (yes all by myself...that's an accomplishment in itself) I do play some computer games (no thanks to my ex bf), and I do experience some lag, etc with some games, but it doesn't answer my problem to the internet/my computer slowness. Could I be helped?
I don't completely know my specs...but I'll give it a try:
RAM 256
Intel Pentium 4
GeForce 5200 FX
Lol..that's all I can give you for now.
If you need more info, I can look it up, but I'm not at my home pc at the moment.
Thanks!
