Too much garbage, too many things running in the background, too many services.

I have read that Game Booster was a big resource hog and it slowed more down than it sped up. Also if you have any of these crazy sound packs running around causes game problems too.

Mook what OS you running on that laptop?
Cause if its Vista you should upgrade to Win 7.

If its XP chances are its long overdue for a format, reinstall.

 Crazy sound packs,Flushed?This is becoming more of a pain as I go along.Maybe I should just quit.
Everyone I talk to assumes I know as much about computers as they do,well I don't.

Ghosth played on it at the Con so he can vouch wether it's a smooth running system or not.
