I don't play games so I can't say about that. Mouse and keyboard are fine. Problem is with opening all programs, applications, files, documents, Firefox, Outlook Express etc.
Thanks for the suggestion. I downloaded the program but it needs a lot of study and application and I don't have the time for the long learning curve it obviously entails.
Running Super antispyware, Spybot search and destroy, Avast antivirus.
Not better after defrag. Both boot time and running. 3 mins boot. Several mins opening docs, programs etc
Thanks for your replies
