    Hello

    I'm using an old laptop the moment and i'm having problems

    Opening apps on desktop - Will not open or takes a long time.
    Installing apps takes a long time.
    Opening web browser takes a long time.
    Webpages freezes scrolling up and down.
    Start up is sluggish

    I have done the following and still the same.

    Tested for virus spy and adware
    HDD is fine. I use Diskeeper 12
    Complete system scan.


    Is there a software worth trying that that will make an old laptop run better?

    Any advice appreciated.

    Thanks
