I have a little Acer Aspire One netbook/notebook, whatever. I had issues with it’s performance and ran the system/restore disks on it. I only downloaded a couple of programs I’d had before- nothing major, most went to memory card (D.).
I’m used to having between 12-20% free memory on my hard drive, but somehow I’m between 2-5%, with warnings every now and then of low virtual memory. Really, I’ve nothing to dump. My automatic updates are still trying to get my pc up to date (I re-booted 2 days ago) but I’ve stopped downloading/installing updates until I figure out how to redirect them.
I would then uninstall/reinstall everything to it’s new location, thereby eliminating my memory issues…
Downloads: Advanced System Care, AVG Free, Free Iobit Uninstaller & its updates, Adobe reader 9 update, Advanced Searchbar, Divx player, MS net frameworks 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, MS visualc++ 2005 redistributable (for Divx),plus all the updates and hotfixes, with 41 more updates from Microsoft waiting to be downloaded before I’m up to date.
I could really use some good advice, and in layman’s words, please, I’m still @ the intermediate level in pc jargon! Thank you, Cynthia W.
