    Hi All,

    GF has a Sony Vaio laptop, not particularly old or anything (maybe 18 months) but lately it has been slowing up. Taking longer to start, browser slower etc.

    Can anyone provide a list of things i could do to tune up it?

    I have gone through the following
    - Gotten rid of any unwanted installed programs.
    - Gotten rid of a lot of photos/files etc on her C drive.
    - De fragmented the hard drive.

    - Installed google chrome at she is now using that.

    Are there any other steps i can carry out to tune this up?

    Any help appreciated.. i dont think it needs to be fixed/looked at, just would like a step in the right direction to make sure she is getting the most out of it.

    Thanks
