Ok, so my pc is reallllyyy slow, like rediculously slow.

Once I had a virus so the pc man told me to like, completely start my pc again to make it go how it was when I first had it.

It worked good and made my pc dead quick, but I've forgot what I did =/

Any ideas?

sorry not likely, you could spend a little amount of money on a RAM and it would hel a good bit

the only way i can think of is if you completely reinstall yur computer, whipe everything on yur drive and it will speed up, but yull have nothing on it

How old is your PC? If it's a few years old there might not be a point to seriously upgrading it, it might just be cheaper to get a new one (with the low prices of PCs these days).

I full reinstallation of Windows would be ideal though, and that's what the repair guy probably did last time. You'll need your original Windows installation disks for it though, or a restore disk if it came with your PC. This will wipe everything from the computer though, and start again fresh.
