I have a desktop and a portable pc both with the same software including XP
SP2 The desktop has 512Mb RAM and the laptop has 215 Mb RAM
Until recently the laptop has performed satisfactorily but now is extremely
slow in any operation . At one stage I got a message that the Virtual Memory
was too low so I upped it which give a slight improvement but the
performance is still unacceptable
I run AVG,Defender,Spybot, Ad-Aware, Spyware Doctor, A Squared and
Smithfraud.. I thought Spyware Doctor might be the cause so deleted it on
the laptop with no change in performance
I regularly clean and defrag and have only used 20Gb on a 37 Gb HD
Is it possible that someone could give me guidance on how I can find out
what is causing the problem?
