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?

get a new RAM, it will speed it up

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.

Any way of doing it without spending money? =/

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
