My computer hasn't come yet, but it's an HP Pavilion Tablet and I heard that HPs come with a bunch of programs that slow your computer down. I've been playing around with my grandfather's HP and think I should be able to delete most from Control Panel / Add Remove Programs, etc., but I've been reading up on it and a lot of people say that the best way to get rid of shit is to restore, reinstall Windows Vista, etc.
I suck at anything computer related if it has to do with ... fixing and installing things into my computer. So I was just wondering if anybody has an HP and thinks that it works fine without reinstalling Windows without the bloatware. Or if just deleting extraneous trials and programs from the Control Panel works fine. //edit: sorry, I guess this goes in technology. |

HP's are okay, my previous laptop was an HP and it wasn't slow or anything. I think the main problem is that it comes with Vista which could be why its so slow and coming along with any programs that they have added on it.
Also my previous HP had windows xp, so of course it was probably better than having vista. |
