Computer problems

You really have to think to yourself though all jokes aside. You said this pc worked 3 weeks ago. What have you done in the past 3 weeks?
Is it only Nortons that you started running?
If so just get rid of that and see.
Before making all these changes. Why upgrade a pc now and days and spend that kind of money and headache. Save your money if it works fine and by a simple generic pc down the way. Save in todays economy is my motto.
Take care


I was thinking the samething too Cinderly......because it was working fine, and my hard drive has over 200GB (I use an external HD for BU & Storage), I will "buy a simple generic pc down the way". as per nj593.

Let's just say that end users have surprised me in the past, so I've learned to simplify in the most attention-getting language possible.

True - I clearly wasn't paying close enough attention to the time frame (although I do like ADD RAM! as generic advice.) If ganking Norton and shutting down random processes don't speed it up, there's also the dreaded [SIZE="1"]OS reinstall[/SIZE].

I hate doing a full reinstall, but I love the way my PC runs after one. I'm due to reinstall both machines this month and keep putting it off.

Me too ......I back-up my files last week....but I am afraid to mess with it because I can't do without my computer right now.
