Think about increasing the RAM to 2GB. If it's the Wind U180, the required module is here for £9.99.

Though you should double check that it takes DDR3.

Will make a real difference.

Thanks guys, have downloaded Avast and ran a scan, comp working better. The problem I had was when trying to open a web page it kept coming up with an error msg, saying windows had to close. that's stopped now. cheers

Hi Gal .. I ditched AVG and Microsoft Security essentials .. both were freebies and TBH not much if anything was detected ,,, MSE was very shallow and AVG never did anything .... now what you want is
AVAST ... go for the free version ..its brilliant .. from the first time I downloaded it it was picking up stuff , malware and crap and now it
runs in the background , check its self so on so forth ... TOP DRAW.
Computer Geeks and I am not one say its the best " FREEMIUM "
Free/Premium out there .. I agree.
