Hi folks I've been asked to sort out a Packard Bell lap top (Ho Ho) that is about 2 years old.... CPU about 1.2Ghz memory ???? 20Gb Hdd.
It is running XP home (not used to this OS only pro and I find the files are in strange places???). I wiped the Hdd as it once had a massive infection as asked to do and reinstated XP with the restore CD (no real xp cd). Machine quite slow but acceptable. It had Norton AntiVirus 2002 installed and this appeared Ok but I Installed NAV 2005 after first running SP2. Here is the rub... with SP2 all Ok with NAV 2005 everything takes 1/2 hour to complete. Boot up is 4 mins. Start menu = 40sec. IE6 2.5mins Windows Explorer = 2mins NAV window 5mins. Shut down a window = anywhere from 30secs to calling TaskManager to force it to close and then TM take 2 mins to load and the window another 3mins to accept the command to close. Any Ideas ?????????????? Maybe NAV is too big and complex for a 2 year old low spec laptop and if so does anyone know of a cheap alternative to NAV that a, works B, is faster and c, does not slow the system down as NAV does.... This is getting frustrating now and the machine has to be back next weekend at the latest..... Sir Hugh of Bognor Intelligence is not knowing the answer but knowing where and how to find it!
