Ultra slow laptop.

by bitofbetterbutter Mar 4, 2006 10:26AM PST

Hello,

I've had this Toshiba Satellite A-60 for quite a while now, and ever since I got it, it's been in ultra vacation/ cruise mode. It takes several seconds just to open an I.E browser, and I expected, being an 80gb Hard Drive, that it would process a lot faster. One thing that has got me thinking is it only has 192mb RAM. I was wondering if anyone thinks this could be a contributing factor to my computer's slow-ness. Or if there's anything else that might be causing it. I do keep it properly moderated, performing the appropriate scans when they're needed. So, I'm stumped :\. Any help would be awesome!!

Thanks.
