   1.From IE, click Tools, Internet Options
   delete cookies
   delete files (offline files)
   clear history (set days to save to 0 if you want)
   click o.k., and Restart
   2.click Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools – run Disk Cleanup
   3.Temporarily close Quick Launch:
   Right-click on the Taskbar, click Toolbars, deselect Quick Launch
   4.Open My Computer
   right-click on C:
   click Properties
   click Tools, select Error Check (check all and fix), when finished click defrag & run.
   5.click Start, Run ipconfig renew (type ipconfig space renew)
   6.Restart. Right-click on Taskbar, click Toolbars, select Quick Launch to restore

   All these things should be done regularly. The more frequently they are run, the less time they take.
   -Note: Games and videos are mostly graphics. Graphics create large files. If these suggestions don’t help, you might need more memory.

   Last, if you haven’t cleaned your registry in a while. This is necessary. Your registry holds all the information regarding updates, installs, un-installs etc. Each one of those events produces a key. That key needs your PC’s resources and free space. So, if you clean your registry, you make more resources available for speed. Do a registry scan if you got more than 20 errors you should clean it.

   You need more RAM and a bigger CPU. If you have xp i would suggest at least 512mb or 1024mb of RAM with a 1.5ghz or 2ghz cpu.

   Maybe it’s time to get a new machine it would be cheaper. You can get cheap ones from argos ranging from £299 and £600 or about £1199 for mac pc’s.

   Argos.co.uk

   or

   also go on crucial.com and it will scan your pc for what ram you can add and how much it will cost and waht type of ram, i.e.DDR2.

   hope this helps =)

   384 MB of RAM??? Wow.

   You need to upgrade your computer quickly!

   Just for comparison, I’ve got 4GB of RAM, which converts to 4,096MB of RAM

   Even if your computer is running Windows XP, it is time to double the amount of RAM that is installed. Go to http://www.crucial.com and run their scanner to find out how much RAM your computer can handle. But it. Install it. Voilà! Your computer will seem like a new machine.

   Most computers actually run slow because of a hidden part of your system, which is constantly being used by Windows. This part of your PC is called the "registry" and is the central database for Windows, which stores everything from your latest emails to your desktop wallpaper. It’s one of the most important parts of Windows and can easily make your PC run slow.The more corrupt registry files your computer has, the more it struggles to read them.The files which makes it run slower and slower. To fix this, you simply need to use a registry cleaner http://computer-e-book-money.com . These are small software tools which actually work by scanning through the registry and fixing any bad files that are in there. This then allows Windows to read as many files as it wants, when it wants to.
