1 yearold Dell comp LAGS

[pwrpuffdaddy]

I have a 1 year old Dell comp I purchased from the company and it runs like CRAP ! I'm only using 3% of my harddrive and the computer still lags and takes a long time to do pretty much anything. Ive used virus and spyware programs on it but it still lags. Could it just be defective ???

How about you tell us a few things about the computer besides its age.

yah model number would help, specs, and what OS you are running it on. also where does it "lag"? boot-up, opening programs, internet, playing games, shutting down, saving files, all of these? chances are it's something like spyware or a virus, but if its just laggy in games or saving files it could be as simple as u need more RAM, or maybe your video card needs updating. hard to tell if it's just "laggy".

LOL yeah the specs would be useful Fire up CPUz (www.cpuid.com), goto the About tab and do a HTML Output and attach it
