So, I came to the conclusion that my computer takes eons to load up. Is there anything I can do to make my computer run faster? I usually have about 3 - 4 processes running at the same time (firefox, photoshop, a music player (itunes, zune, windows media) and maybe word), and sometimes my computer freezes, but the internet is fast and I dont have any viruses, so what would some of you techies recommend?

Very first upgrade to any computer, is memory. If it's video game related, then video card. If not the next would be the processor. And worse comes to worse, you'd replace the whole motherboard, get new ram, video card, and a processor

Throw in a case, PSU, and some fans and all you have left is your old information. |
