Well i just bought an old laptop from my friend and I bought 2 gigs of ram for it. Its an hp and runs win XP SP2. And there is a couple problem...
First, I have 2 sticks of 512 ram in it and it says I only Have 256 in my system setup under control panel. I just ordered my 2 gigs so I will try that when it comes in. Just any suggestions.
Second, It runs really slow when you power it on, so I went to my task manager and saw that it was of course the svchost.exe. I then looked up trying to fix that and currently in the process but still any suggestions would be nice. But my question is, will reinstalling windows or reformatting help get rid of that?
Thanks
