I have a Compaq Presario and a Fujitsu Siemens laptop which were both once great, but now they're reduced to not much better than door-stops...

I even wiped everything off the laptop by re-installing Windows XP a few months back... but it soon started running like an old dog again.
Any idea how to fix it?
(I guess not since anyone who really could fix this would become an overnight millionaire!)

Cheers!

the reason computers do that is everytime you install something on the computer it goes to the start up files so over time the mopre you have installed the more things run when you start your computer you can fix this easy by going to start-run- type msconfig click on start up see all the checks? thats why the computer is slow uncheck most if not all of that and wolla lightning fast pc again ...hope this hels and again sorry it took so long i didnt know how to post and stuff till recently have good one
