Lately I have been noticing my dads computer is getting a little old. it was bought in 2003
he has a pentium 4 2.66ghz, 80gb hdd, 1gb ram, via s3 unichrome pro video 64mb shared, xp pro sp3
recently he bought a 19" widescreen monitor to replace an old 15" crt. Now sometimes video performance suffers but he mainly uses the computer for email, facebook and basic internet stuff but he will try and watch a video if he gets emailed one and sometimes it lags but plays fine on my computer.
so I come here to ask, how many more years could we get out of this pc u tihnk?
could the lag in video be due to the new monitor?
