Hi guys !
I've got a computer at work which seems to slow down after a while it's been on !
It is a P2 400Mhz, 64MB RAM, with Win98 SE. It was alright before but since a few weeks now, it slow down after 1-2 hours it's been on. And, when I say it slow down, it really slow down, eg : it can take up to 12 seconds (watch in hand) to open or close a simple word document.
I've cleaned up the drive (temporary files, recycle bin...) and done a Defrag a week ago, but to no avail !
There is no virus on it, in fact, I've reduced the running programs to Explorer and Systray only. I've checked the Virtual Memory settings (Windows handle it).
Does anybody have an idea of what it could be ? Could it be a hardware problem, memory ?, CPU getting too hot ?
Any suggestions appreciated
Thanks
Fred
