Computer becoming slow and freezing often. Remedy?

Recommended Posts

Its been a while since I posted here, and this is supposed to be a chicken forum, but here goes:

 

I have started to notice that my computer is becoming slow and is freezing a bit more often. Here is a nice bit of technical jargon

 

I am running Windows Vista Home Premium, with a Intel Pentium 2.80 GHz processor. About a year ago, I added an extra 1GB of RAM to the machine, so it currently has 2GB RAM.

 

I will admit, there isn't much space left on it, there is about 2.5GB memory free on the C: drive of 71GB.

 

I have heard that clearing "Temp" files can help greatly, but I am not sure if this is a good idea, or how to do so.

 

Any ideas...

You could always do a system restore, to a date & time you remember it running well.

My computer, control panel, system & maintenence - then system restore is up the top left. Choose a time & date then click next. It will shut down then restart your computer. You may find that it will then want to do some windows updates.

 

Good luck!
