SaiFightsMS Posted November 17, 2002 Posted November 17, 2002 The more programs that run in the background using up ram the slower the computer functions in general. Adding more ram sometimes helps.
BlueDragon1981 Posted November 19, 2002 Posted November 19, 2002 Yep the more you install the slower it will get. Unless you know how to disable things on startup ect. Their are ways to make things only run when you ask them. That is something I'm still learning.
KG Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 It has to search through more stuff to find what it wants, hence the slower access time. Its like looking for a book in a library, the more books there are, the longer it takes

BlueDragon1981 Posted February 13, 2003 Posted February 13, 2003 It is processing information. Sometimes it gets bogged down. Doesn't nessecarily happen at any specific time. Usually it is just the computer doing its thing. If it does it constantly though. Like non stop you may need something replaced.
