My laptop is getting slower and slower. In a few hours when my weekly Norton antivirus system scan starts up the computer will run like molasses.
I think the problem is that the hard drive is about 65% full and even though I have 1 gig of RAM I think that It’s time that I start looking into getting some laptop memory. Perhaps another gig if I have an open slot for it.
Actually I’m wondering how I can tell if I have a slot open … barring opening the computer up and taking a look I mean.
At least this is the right time of year to get new memory for a computer isn’t it? Maybe I can get a good boxing day or New Years deal on new memory.
I have a portable hard drive that I store some of my files on as well … but when you take as many digital photos as I do you quickly begin to run out of space. I’ve already filled up our desktop computer with about as many digital photos and files as I can too.
I understand how you feel because I encountered the same problems as yours! It sucks having a slow computer! It actually pissed me off especially if I do have tons of things to do! Anyway, thanks for sharing your post!!!
