I have a Windows XP laptop with a 2.4 GHz Pentium 4 processor and 512 MB
of RAM (see
http://www.mobile-support.net/product_view.php?product_qa_id=13&size=min).
Compared with my Windows 2000 PC with similar spec the laptop 'feels'
considerably more sluggish - in fact when it has been running for a
while sometimes things get so bad that it almost grinds to a halt when I
have several applications running simultaneously.
I realise that Windows XP requires more resources than Windows 2000, and
I seem to remember being told once that laptops in general require more
resources than PCs, but I wonder if there is anything I can do to
improve the situation.
Thank you.
