Alright all you computer wizards....
I have Dell XPS desktop. It has always been a fast machine. Dual processors and loads of memory. I am not even using half of the computer.
Recently it has slowed down considerably. I did a disk cleanup and defrag this morning. Tell you how little of my computer I am using, my defrag took less than 30 minutes. Windows XP Media Edition is my OS.
I have cable. I have a wireless router hooked up.
Lately I have been reduced to almost dial-up speeds. Maybe not that bad, but it is slow. Waiting for pages to load/refresh.
Where else can I look/clean to get this thing back on track?
I pretty regularly run Ad-aware to clean up stuff. And of course I have my OEM McAfee running as well.
Thanks for your help.
