Ive upgraded ram from 576mb to 2gb,but computer still slow?

hi all. ive just upgraded the ram on a computer x.p from 576mb to 2gb. friend recommened changing the virtual ram to 4095, i done this but computer still slow and no re-adjusting message came up. before done upgrade of ram 2gb the virtual ram was set at 576 and max at 1152, was i right to change it to 4095 after the upgrade of 2gb ram



ive read up that its 1.5 x the ram u have installed, but was told by few friends that 4095 virtual ram with 2gb ram installed is ok

ive done plenty of scans, and no viruses etc. i do have hard drive partition, but no sure how this quite works. ram was installed at computer shop and can see it has registered with computer. and can see the change in virtual ram as 4095 in both values so that has changed



would i have to set another virtual ram on the other partition as well?



here is the specs:

Maximum Memory Capacity: 2048MB

There are a several reasons why your computer is freezing/slow. First question is when the last time you cleaned your registry. Having a corrupted registry can cause a whole host of errors and problems. Freezing up is one of them. If you have a lot of unnecessary registry keys that are hogging up your computer resources. Your computer is bound to choke. Scan your registry with a good registry cleaner. If you pull up more than 20 errors or duplication, clean your registry.

2. Depending on your RAM specs and your computer usage. This could also be the issue. Having an insufficient amount of free space does not allow your RAM to function properly. If you are using a lot of RAM by net surfing or other activities without enough empty space your will get freezes. You don't need to buy new RAM but you should increase your free space by removing unnecessary data and perhaps increasing your virtual memory. The below link will show you how.



3. Spyware could be the culprit, so do a scan and see if your computer is infected.

Get the best one from: %26lt;--http://toptenantispyware.com to scan your computer.



4. That last area is a hardware driver. This could be the problem if new hardware has been added to the system. So, the drivers should still be up to date. So try the first two suggestions and see if you can get your computer to stop freezing/speed up.

Check your drivers. Hope this helps.

Theres more to the speed of your computer then just the ram, if your computer is still running slow with 2gb of RAM installed then i suggest that you get a new computer
The Speed Of Your Computer Has More To Do With It's Processing Speed (Your CPU) Than How Much Memory There Is On The Hard Drive. A Dual Core Processor Would Operate More Quickly. The Speed Is Also Effected By What's Going On In The Background? If It Is Constantly Scanning Incoming Files For Security It Will Slow Everything Down. It Also Depends If You Have Dial Up Or Broadband And What Speed Of Streaming Is Available?

I Hope This Helps Mate.
you setup on your machine is fine go to start run and type msconfig

load up only the basics then reboot see if it's still slow if it's fast then you have a lot of items loaded on start up that does not need to be loaded. also you did not state the bus speed of the computer or how fast the hard drive is, that makes a difference to. a ide drive is slower than a sata drive and if you have a raid card you could speed it up by 4 times with the right raid configuration. MY guess it's your hard drive and loaded programs.
I'm not sure what the exactly is causing your problem but



1) I hope you are not trying to game with that onboard graphics card (SiS 760gx). You may have an AGP slot on you Motherboard that you can install a card into (7 series Nvidia Geforce or a X1xxx series Ati Radeon card). Depends on you're Power Supply too.



2) Your Proceesor could be too slow for what you're trying to run



3) You may have loads of adware/spyware on your system so you might want to install and run Spybot Search and Destroy on it.








Most computer users have been trained that if you want more speed for your computer, then add more memory. Well, this is true, in certain circumstances. But for most of the times, it really is just bad files in your registry files. Corrupted or missing registry files can make your computer too slow.

The registry is a main part of your computer's Operating System. With time, as you use Windows and install and uninstall programs, your registry will get congested and full of errors. So your computer could slow down. So, if you can clean it up this problem can be solved.Sometimes you can speed computer up by 300%. To clean up registry,You can download a software called regsitry cleaner---Clean registry,remnant,corrupt files and temp files,history,cookies,etc.. This site:
