Re: Help

Getting more RAM usually helps in speeding up a computer. You can also try clocking it. I'm not completely sure how to do this, but I think there is usually a switch that you can use to clock it. There are also programs that can clock your computer. Be careful when clocking though, as it really heats up your computer. I wouldn't suggest it unless you aren't going to do it for long or you have a really good cooling system on your computer.

Re: Help

Ya, overclocking isn't ever a good idea in my opinion. I'd go with more RAM if I were you. But if you must overclock, do be careful.
