why is my pc running really slow???

[TomJ]

im running xp pro sp3 on my pc its specs are
1.5GHz and
2x512MB
and ive seen the min specs to run XP and im well clear
300MHz and
128Mb
i want to know why my pc is running really slow is it anything to do with the HD, it could be on its last legs, i mean theHD not making a noise it seems to be running fine, thats the only conclusion i come with

PS the ram is SDram

i would just say its the harddrive you have a very good system for vista my computer the one im using now is only 1.8 gigahurts and 256 mb of ram and it blazes but i only have 15 programs installed
so you should prolly clean your harddrive or just get another harddrive for storage, idk up to you

i agree. try that and we will see what happens
