Slow Computer

by bladeofeternity . Updated 22 years, 10 months ago

Im not sure what category to put this in. I am primarily a gamer but i also do alot of web development. I am running a Pentium 4 1.3GHZ with 128MB of SDRAM, Geforce2 MX, 48GB hard drive on Windows 98SE. Recently i have noticed a severe loss in performance. In an attempt to rectify this i formatted my hard drive. While this has vastly improved startup time many games have become next to unplayable. I experience lag in games where i meet the minimum requirements and i cannot experience fluid gameplay even in games i could before. Can someone please tell me how to rectify this as i cannot upgrade for at least 2 months and its really getting to me. Also i am 16 so keep the jargon to a minimum although i know enough to get around
