performance
I would like to get a straight answer about slow performance. I need to know if it my system, or another problem. I have a Dimension 8200,pentium 4 processor at 1.7GHz, 128MB RDRAM,40GB Hard Drive. I have installed Norton system works about 6 months ago. Before you even suggest it, no, I do not have a virus, or spyware operating in the back gorund. Norton does a superb job of monitoring signatures, blocking unauthorized access, and running automatic virus scans, and downloading all updates through live update. I also down load all available updates from microsoft.
I am having shut down problems,having to use the power button, ( at times, not always...) I am having trouble with closing windows, and at times, it just locks up. Do I have too much going on for 128MB of memory ? When I ordered this in 2001, I was a brand new pc user. I put my trust in Dell to give me what I needed to operate windows xp and other applications. I don't feel I am over loaded, so why the slow performance?
Thanks, Mary
