    Unfortunately, as you say you're not technically minded, i would have said to re-install windows. My guess is that its a pretty basic laptop but there's a load of crap on it slowing it down. Maybe ask some you know who is technicallly minded to re install windows for you?

    Dont mean to be a knob, but buy a decent lapptop. Those things are toys. Whats worse is they're charging up to €500 for them.


    Get a techie mate to clean it up/re-install for you, should help a bit.
