My system is:
WIndows XP home edition
AMD athlon 1.67
256 RAM
100 Gig Hard disk - 1 = 40Gig - 5200 RPM
1 = 60Gig - 7200 RPM
Graphics card - Geforce 440 MMX - 64 Mb
The problem is that my system is running really slowly. I have tried lots but nothing seems to work.
Looking at the Task manager nothing seems to be hogging resources.
I have given the drives a good clean and defrag.
i have followed numerous guides which helped me clean up my computer in general such as disabling unnecessary services on startup and running in general using Msconfig and the services.msc.
In addition to this i purchased a program caled system mechanic which helped clean the registry amoungst other things.
My system still seems to be running slowly and some folders often when running end up not responding and having ot be shut down.
Does anyone have any ideas why this is happenning or even better some ideas on how to overcome this problem.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks
