Oh my, do I feel the same about mine too!!Grrrrr

come on then kick its arse what you want to do to it then.. make you feel good. hi sue and bon

Nothing would make me feel any better than if it worked properly again...... cos if I kicked or threw it I won't even be able to do anything on here!! So some communication is better than none!

i blame the user... the laptop was fine till you started using it :O

oh yeah, as you said like 5 min after i finally removed myself from the forum surfing computer turned off the film playing computer and sat in front of the work computer (and this is literal which goes to show...) and now ive got 3 more assignments... but ones programming so more of a reward for after i finish the essays...

A lot of times, it's down to installing and removing software and various updates to the software you have installed. They never delete the old DLL files, inf files and loads more so they tend to clutter the system and really slow it down. Especially since Windows keeps insisting on loading DLL's into memory for no real reason.

The only real cure is a total, clean re-install of Windows, formatting the hard disk in the process.

yeh done some of that stuff delete temp files frag the thing but today it come on a bit faster thing it knows it's going to get the basil fawlty to it when he gives the car a dam good thrashing with that tree branch....im going to put an empty plant pot next to it so it can see whats coming.... ha! ha!

well i accentally 'uhem' spilt wine on mine, it was covered on my insurance, and bobsyeruncle iv got a brand new dell lappy, in pink of course! thats how i handled it anyway

you got a whole new model? when my exfriend borrowed it and split carlsberg over it i only got a keyboard which i had to replace myself (so the replacing was hardly an issue but its the principle :O...) i prob would have fixed the old one but it was a fortnight after the spill that i discovered my laptop with half the keys removed :S
