There is no need to keep on defragging the hard drive - once every 3-4 months is more than enough.
As for the Ram - you are the customer and have the right to accept or refuse any service that is offered to you.
If you have 4 slots [Crucial says 4] - 1Gb in each slot will make all the difference.
Hey I finally got my new Ram added. It turned out I really did have just 2 slots. (I actually watched when the Staples guy was working on it) The guy said sometimes when your puter is built by a puter guy the Crucial Memory Scan is not as accurate. So anyhoo, I have 2GB in each slot. The puter seems to be running really well. So I just need to remember to do my Malwarebytes scan and the Antispyware scan once a week. And then do the special defrag for windows vista every 3 to 4 months and maybe I will stay in good shape.
You know I had problems trying to do the contig "thing" rkseid suggested, but didn't hear back from she/he on what to do. So I thank you so much for all of your help. It's been great have a good teacher.
Please let me know if you have any other suggestions.
Hi, thanks for the update, no more suggestions - the contig 'thing' I would not worry about.
