My computer is going pretty fucking slow recently and its really annoying me now, i couldent be arsed at first but it seems it probably needs a DeFragging!
So im gonna do it in a hot minute then im gonna play Dreamcast or Xbox while its doing it, ill be back on later and hopefully it'll be running smoother!

when mine goes slow, a defrag does nothing, when it gets bad (as its getting), it needs a nice formatting.

I usually do Maintenance Wizard, Virus scan and Spyware scanner on my computer like every week.
It keeps it running smooth but with a 435Mhz processor its only gonna go as fast as it is now.

Well that was ages ago, i cant remember whether the De-frag made a difference or not.
Recently it was running like shit slow again so i Formatted it and re-installed Win 2k, it runs great at the moment.

if it goes slow a spyware scan is the first thing to do. A defrag helps, but spyware is the biggest thing to bring your system to a crawl.

I've tented to just update bit by bit over the years. I did a pretty major one around last Xmas so I'm set for a while yet. Major as in I updated a good amount, but not all top of the range stuff. Cheap stuff actually, but it still blitzes most things handy enugh

I just recently upgraded someones computer. Upgrades trump all forms of formatting/de-fragging/clean ups.

Upgrades trump all forms of formatting/de-fragging/clean ups. yeh, after a while, no amount of formatting, de fragging and cleaning up can help your computer, thats what my laptop is like these days. unfortunatly you cant just open up and upgrade laptops like you can with pc's, so fuck it im gonna get a new one in a couple months

Why bother with a laptop, unless you genuinely need one get a desktop (say a mini tax case) then slowly add decent hardware for the same cost as buying a new laptop!! works better that way don't you think?
*edit* t'); break; } } var code = inner[1].split(' his is also popping up on my dad's MAC so perhaps not a prob with Joe's comp but a problem with your coding!! prob just some code left over from one of the many mods you've installed!
