| 722392 | 2008-11-24 07:59:00 | OK so what's the deal? Why do PC's slow down over time? I've heard many people say things like "It's all that junk you download" or "You need more ram". I need more ram? My PC ran just fine before, how can I need more? Junk? What is 'junk' exactly and how does that slow down m PC? |

| 722395 | 2008-11-24 08:56:00 | Registry, also the fact that a lot of people don't defrag and that can slow down file opening/searching etc. Bad drivers, software conflicts, bad installs, corrupted files... | beeswax34 (63) | ||

How many processes do you have running normally? (mine has 24 right at this moment) How many services have been installed and are running continually for no reason? |

I've been fed a lot of BS as well, so just trying to sort the crap from the truth. I've never had a satisfactory answer to this. |

I just sorted through them, stopped and disabled a whole bunch, that brought my processes down to 43. |
