Hey guys, its been a while since ive been on the forum but i ran into a little problem lately with my friends PC. Hes running a eMachine 1.70 ghz celeron 40gb hard drive 128mb of ram and its been running very slowly. So, normally, I suggested that he buy some ram; I went and got a 1GB PNY DDR stick and poped it in.... apparantly that wasnt the problem because its still EXTREMELY slow.

1. Loading slow, program loading slow, start bar loading slow, etc.
2. The 1 GB of ram registers in the system properties section so it cant be a comptability issue.
3. I deleted all anti-virus software and did a virus/spyware scan and nothing can be found.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
