[QUOTE="Johnny O, post: 744722, member: 61743"] They start getting creaky and slow after about 5 years. If you have Windows 95 or 98, hit CNTRL + ALT + DEL to get the list of running programs, then shut everything off except Explorer and Systray. You should find a Disk Cleanup on your Tools or Accessories menu, run that and follow it with a Defrag. Defrag takes a while, I run it before I go to bed or at work when I'm leaving. If you have your original Windows CD you can take it to a shop or Geek Squad and have them wipe the hard drive and reinstall. In my experience, after about 5 years any computer is on borrowed time.
