My computer has slowed down badly. I am using XP home.
I defragged, cleaned the harddisk and the register. No success. What
else can I do?
Chb581@xxxxxxxxx

go to "run" and enter "msconfig"
click on the "start" tab
uncheck the boxes that are next to applications that you do need to open.
For example, PDF readers, photo s/w, office suites. You should only open
those when you want to use them.
Make sure to click apply and then OK.
Reboot the system. When you get the message that the menu has changed tell
it not to remind you.

You may want to check the amount of RAM installed and upgrade that.
