I have to pay rent for the first time but didnt have time to order checks from my bank. Is it possible for me to go to my teller and have them give me a blank check with just my routing number in the meantime till I order for next month?

I do little things. Disk Checks, get rid of old files, defragment. After doing all that the pc runs good for a few times and then slows down again. What can i do more. Get a registry cleaner, but will that improve the performance

My father’s computer is very slow and it makes a grinding noise when it has to process information. I’m pretty sure it’s not a problem on the software end. I think maybe the RAM is toast or the hard drive damaged. Is there a diagnostic tool in XP (or maybe in BIOS) that can run checks on my hardware to see if they are performing as they should?
