Okay, so I’ve been meaning to schedule defrags, scans, get rid of all these unnecessary programs and stuff like that, but I don’t have time! Would a professional –at where?– do it for me? A laptop is easy to bring in.
I don’t CARE how much it costs! My computer is a absolute mess. I have things saved all over the place and phantom programs, and argh, I’d rather pay 50 bucks for someone else to do it. Okay, thanks!

my xp pc is running slow, i have taken the unnecessary programs away and cleaned registry. Looks like the only way to get the original performace back is to reinstall windows. Can i reinstall xp without touching programs, i may backup files first but not programs? or any other suggestion to speed up the old pc? Thanks
