My main home machine running Vista is cuckoo!

As I have mentioned before it sometimes run very slowly. After I removed Nortons (I spit on Symantic!) it behaved much better. But the last weekend it slowed down again. I have no idea why. A few reboots (which took ages) it picked up speed again. Banghead


Currently running like a Swiss watch.

Right ~ I have taken out the latest update and we'll see how it goes.








Seems to be running like a Swiss Watch now.

What was the update?

Miss D has the nub of it. Yes I removed an update (so called security patch) and instantly the machine is running better.
I shall next remove the update to Works 8 ~ No idea why it should have installed that or even how since I do not have Works 8  Banghead
I used to have a handle on life but it broke.
