Hello,
im having some trouble, i recently did a system recovery because something wasnt working which WAS working before.

now after the system recovery, my computer started running and still keeps running incredible slow.

now i know there are several solutions that may solve the problem though for some reasons i can apply any of them.

1. i cant download anything anymore, nor can i do Online virus scans.

2. already did an Ad-aware and Spybot check. without succes.

3. some programs do not start anymore like MSn messenger, some games and Windows media player.

4. System Defrag done...without succes...

5. tried using a Ram cleaner, also...without succes.

so if anyone knows a diffrent solution. please repley or send an email.

Thanks in Advance,
Tim

ram cleaners are not good to be used in xp and most are snake oil at best.
you might look in the device manager any problems showing?
done your windows updates?
might do checkdisk and try this as well.
