My cousin is a very angry and unhappy computer user. Her Dell Inspiron 3670 with an Intel i7, 8 gigs of RAM and a 1 TB hard drive I think. Her computer is running very, VERY slowly and she is raging mad, angry and P. O'd about it. I could be wrong, but I think it's software and data clutter. I...

My cousin's Dell Inspiron 3670 is running EXCEPTIONALLY SLOW. It takes forever for programs and info to come up. It has an Intel i5 CPU and 8 gigs of ram as far as I can tell. I think it's software clutter. I'm pretty good with hardware,....but not so hot with software. She's very...

Thanks for your reply. I don't know why a human virus has to affect computer prices. Just the usual greed I guess.

Thank you for your reply and info. Appreciate it.

Does anyone know why and what the price increase on the MS "Natural Ergonomic 4000 Keyboard went up so much lately and the supply of them went South? They're listed on the MS site for $49.95, but everywhere else online they're $129. I can't imagine it can have anything to to with "the virus"...

I am using ESET NOD32 for years now and it didn't stop the "Windows Activation" scam from locking up my computer. I don't know how I figured my way out of that one. It's happened several times in the last week. or so. I'm thinking of changing to Malwarebytes either free or paid. Any or...

Thanks Outlander. Where do I find the "exact model and revision number of the MB" ? I have my case open but can't find model and revision number or don't know where to look. Got any hints? And the older AMD board was a 939,....not a 9939. My keyboard is messed up too and is repeating...

You turn off your computer one night, everything is fine. You turn it back on in the morning and everything has gone blooey. All my info seems to still be there, it's just gotten moved to some mysterious place. I think this is a Windows thing. I have 3 drives and an optical drive. I have a...

Thanks Best Answer. I know I've worn out a lot of keyboards and a couple of Microsoft mice. Good suggestions. I'll also start shopping for a new mouse. Yes, I don't need a gaming mouse. I bought the Logitech MX 518 cool look with the "dents" in it. I don't use the back and forth buttons...

Where is the proper forum to ask a question about mice? I seem to be having trouble with my wired Logitech MX 518 wired mouse as well with my Logitech wireless mouse. The wireless mouse is currently working a little better than the wired mouse. The wired mouse's wheel no longer works as...

For my Toshiba R705 P25 laptop will I notice any difference in speed between CL 7 or CL9 ram if I upgrade from 4 to 8 gigs? How about the difference between 10600 and 10666? What is all this obscure terminology? Thanks.
