it looks like ur processor with 433 MHz is too slow for running Win XP..\n\nfollw these steps to get the maximum performance it can give:\n\n-- Run Disk Clean Up for each drive every day.. it can be found in the start>programs>accessories>system tools..\n\n-- Run Disk Defragmenter for each drive once in a week.. it too can be found under start>programs>accessories>system tools.. this may take hours..\n\n-- Run Error Check(Scan Disk) for each drive.. Right click the drive icon.. take properties.. inside the 'Tool' tab it will be found..\n\n-- Check for unused programs that are installed in the system and remove if any..  this can be done using Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs..\n\n-- Right click My Computer.. take properties.. take 'Advanced' tab.. take 'Settings' under 'Performance' section.. choose 'Adjust for best performance' button.. apply the changes..\n   take 'System Restore' tab in the same window.. select 'Turn off system restore on all drives'.. apply the changes..\n   take 'Automatic updates' tab.. choose 'Turn off automatic updating'..(This step is not a must)..\n   click ok..\n\n-- Take Start>Run, type msconfig.. a window will pop-up.. inside that take statup tab.. check for unwanted startup intems and uncheck it all.. it requires restarting of the system..\n\nrestart your system.. now it will give the maximum performance it can.. good luck..

It's unfortunate but the machine (due to the newest changes in technology) is almost a thing of the past. Not only has the technology changed drastically, prices since 2001 have dropped tremendously. I now sell New Laptops with great processing time, sdram memory, video memory, wireless 802.11 ethernet, cd/dvd burner, etc for about $550. My advise to you would be to keep it and use it, I'm sure it works well, or do like me and donate it to the Home for Abused Women or Locks of Love (childrens cancer programs where it can really be used and the kids will love you forever.  Thanks for your time. Larry RadioShack 01-9590

The behavior you are describing is serious and is probably related either to a configuration with your motherboard, a problem with the CPU or similar.\n\nYou should definitely return it for service.

Dont give up the ship matey! I would try the new processor once more but read the manual thuroughly and make sure you have the procssor fan plugged in properly! Take your time, relax, read the manual once more! Cards themselves are pretty hard to install improperly, the most important things to remember are following the exact details of processor installation, cooling fan, and memory! Once you get it goin, its only easier to do the next one!

If your computer is running slowly, I suggest you click the link provided below to download, read, and follow instructions in this guide.  Unless there is a problem with your hardware (dying HDD, for example) then I GUARANTEE reading this guide will help.  Your system will be faster than it was when you first pulled it out of the box and set it up.\n\nhttp://www.tweakguides.com/TGTC.html

be sure to defrag your hard drive. when you install more that a few programs its always a good idea to do so. May increase your performance speed. also do a registry clean up

Out of those - go for the pentium 4 - but the new intel's - core 2 duo's are really kicking a$$ at the moment. - I'd seriously consider looking at a low end one of those even if it's a little over budget.\nhttp://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819115005

Well whats the age of your PC.  Are you getting an error?  When you say it takes too much time, makes me think you may have to little memory.  Have atleast 256MB or 512 MB of RAM?

I just purchased a Dell Inspiron 9300, not the cream of the crop, but a higher end selection. If I could offer any advice, I would suggest an Apple. Even with a brand new operating system, I constantly have programs freezing up. You should look into Apple - I hear they are wonderful.

the processes are to heavy for the amount of RAM you have... get more RAM. x

You need more RAM.\n\nYou might also be under-clocked. Check to see:\n(1) Right click on My Computer\n(2) Look at "Computer:" What's your processor speed say there?\n\nTo reclock or overclock your computer go into BIOS and change you multiplier. Your processor speed is (i think) front side bus times the multiplier. Sometimes mine gets underclocked some how, and I have to go in and fix it. (133mhz X 15 = 2.0ghz).\n\nAlso, you can add some more Virtual RAM. To do this,\n(1) Right click on My Computer\n(2) Click on the Advanced tab\n(3) Under Performance, click on Settings\n(4) Click on the Advanced tab\n(5) Under Virtual Memory, click on Change\n\nThis lets you allocate DRIVE SPACE and turn it into virtual memory.\n\nYou should also turn off junk running in the background.\n\n(1) CTL-ALT-DELETE\n(2) How many processes is your computer running? My Win XP machine runs with as little as 16 processes. \n\nTurn off start-up programs:\n(1) Run this program: msconfig\n(2) Click on the Start Up tab\n(3) Turn off everything you don't NEED\n(4) If you don't know, try turning it off (it really can't hurt your machine)\n(5) Now click on the Services tab\n(6) Click on Hide All Microsoft Services\n(7) Turn off everything you don't NEED\n\nRun Adware/Spyware destroyers. Try Spybot: Search and Destroy. (I linked it for you)\n\nMaintaining a good computer is like maintaining a good car.\nI hope something there helps!
