Windows XP Professional. Gateway Performance 1400. My PC moves slowly and or
freezes. I have tried several programs to debug the pc and have spybot and
another program to get rid of unwanted items but it still slow and subject
to freezing. I defragment every week and clean up the cookies at the same
time. Please help!

Make sure you have the latest BIOS for your Gateway PC, you may check out the
Gateway support site for the same.

Indexing service is a small program that requires a huge amount of RAM. The
indexing Service program is not necessary and can be disabled by following
these steps:

1.. Click Start, run, type "services.msc" (with out quotation marks) and
click OK.

2. In the right-pane, double-click the Indexing Service entry from the list
of available services. The Indexing Service
Properties window opens.
3. Set the Startup type drop down menu to disabled.
4. Click Apply and OK.

NOTE: The following services are unessential and can be disabled from
loading at Startup by performing the

above-mentioned steps:

Distributed Link Tracking Client
