Time warp. Try tapping your clock against the table a few times. If this doesn't work tap a litle harder. Be very careful to not break the clock though. |

I'm no guru, but my first idea would be to scan for spyware and virii in order to see if something is crunching your system's resources and making the response of your keyboard really slow. Is the fan running more than usual? And...Caroline...*immediately* back up anything you don't want to lose, just in case. |

are you using any PCMCIA cards? (take them out, reboot, see if it helps) back up your stuff, run the scans, clean up the trash (caches and temporary files) and try running a defrag. If it's still messing up after all that, I would be suspicious that you have an impending hardware disaster. Are you still under warranty? PS: I am assuming you've tried closing all your open programs with the Task Manager...that you don't have more applications open than you have the RAM to run simultaneously |

I would reformat. If that didn't work, you're probably out of luck. |

I do okay, apple I have built a couple of PCs from bits of junk and spare parts I bought for next to nothing on ebay. I repair ours most of the time. Really, now that it's so easy to post and search newsgroups, help is always at your fingertips. I don't like "technical support," I would just as soon figure it out myself. When my kids are all gone, I'll probably teach more students and do more singing again. But what I would really like to do is work for Geek Squad. That would be so much fun! |
