Hi all, I was just wondering if anyone could tell me could be stopping my laptop from loading quickly. It is very slow when I turn it on and it takes AGES for it to be useable! I am using Windows XP and it is a Dell Inspiron 510m. Is there any magic cure - or failing that some files that can be deleted so to make it faster. Also when windows loads a 'broadband installer' box comes up, I always just click it off as routine - but I have no idea how to get rid of it. Thanks any help would be great!!:)

PS. I have got rid of all internet files, compressed the files etc. Also cannot see any programmes that I can get rid of that are big files
