I've recently added 4GB of extra RAM to my laptop, making it a total of 8 GB. Ive noticed that the computer has been running rather slowly, with tasks such as startup and shutdown taking a long time. The start up itself tkes 5-6 minutes. Is there any way to overcome this problem? My specs are here:
