Ok, we've had this new PC for about a year or so now. The reason we got a new comp is because our old XP one only had 256 ram and was riddled with "junk" all thanks to my brothers >_>
Anyway this new one is just as slow if not slower and I can't figure out why. Here are the specs (just copying the system information here):
Dell Inspiron 530
Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 420 @1.60GHz 1.60GHz
1013MB RAM
32bit Operating System. Vista (Home Basic)
Hope you guys can make more sense of that than I can.
I've checked that nothing hidden is eating up the CPU and as far as I can see its ok. So basically Im thinking I should up the memory to 2GB right? Would there definitely be an improvement if I did? Cos it wouldn't be my money getting spent on additional RAM.
Sorry to ask such stupid questions but my family think I'm supposed to be some sort of tech wizard, it was me who persauded them to get a new PC saying it would be faster and I feel pretty bad that its just as crap as the old one
Thanks in advance.
