My daughter is complaining that her 5 year old MacBook is running
slowly. OS 10.4.11
Is this a PowerBook G4 or an intel-based MacBook?
How much memory?
How much free space on the HD?
In what way, *exactly* is the laptop running slowly?
I ran Disk Warrior on the HD and it found no issues that needed fixing.
What did Disk Utility say?
I also did a deep reset on the computer but she saw no improvement.
Explain please "deep reset". That is a phrase that really means nothing.
Have you cleared the user caches? The system and kernel caches?
Have you run the three maintenance scripts provided by Apple? ....
Can't really tell what you've done, so we can suggest productive
things to try...
