So my computer is....old. I got it back in 2007 back when it was running Windows Vista. It's a Gateway GT5628. Since then, I replaced the original HD with a 150GB one (the old one failed and I didn't have the money for a new one yet), added an additional 500 GB HD, upgraded to Windows 7, replaced 2 memory sticks and added a GT520 graphics card.
It has this problem where it acts as it's running out of memory, but the Resource Monitor still says I have plenty to spare. It will chug, barely moving regardless if it's online or off. All of the optional services are off, all of the startup services are off. Sometimes it will work just fine when I restart, other times I have to restart several times. I can't think of anything else to do. What say you, oh gurus of teh interwebs?
