I have toshiba satellite 2gb ram 160gb harddrive vista home premium. I
turned on my old desktop the other day - it has 128ram 3gb hard drive and
windows ME (the worst Ive heard) and it performs 10 times faster than my new
one. I have read lots of blogs on vista about it being slow but is it this
slow or is something very wrong? I thought some of the problem was with
dial
up but i now have broadband and is no better. I dont know what programs etc
to turn off as I dont know which ones are needed and which ones arent...am
not very computer savvy when it comes to all that stuff.
