I came across 'defragmentation' - in my (limited) understanding, a way of sorting out your computer's filing system. Little did I realise that it would take 6 hours! However, my laptop is faster, and now I know something new. I learnt something today. In fact I learnt a few somethings:
- what defrag is
- how to do it
- why to do it
- why my 'pissing about' is often a good thing
- I am WAY more patient than I ever was before (in the past, something taking 6 hours would be a cue for bouts of impatient temper)
And that's just what I learnt from following my curiosity about a slow laptop. Imagine if you were to follow your curiosity about you, your dreams, your capabilities, your magnificence, your genius. What could you find out?
The world's your oyster!

More memory will make it faster still... x
And once again following my curiosity on this...how much memory? Where do you buy memory from? How do you get it in the computer? How much does it cost?

Do this:
Go to http://www.crucial.com/uk
Click on the Scan My System Button (mid-right of screen)
Tick the terms and conditions box
Click the Start System Scan button
Click Install when you get the Security warnig box
The Crucial System Scanner will run and then present you with a screen detailing how much memory you have, what the upgrade options are and how much they cost.
All that's left is to order memory and fit it...
Call me if you need help!
