I've been running into some problems with my computer lately and hoped GB could pick up where google failed me.
I'm still using the 2006 Dell XPS laptop I brought to college with me. She cooks like an oven and weighs about the same, but up until recently that's been fine because I get to play the games I want at a good clip and sharp resolution. Lately though, I'm getting weird intermitent slow-downs in older games like TF2 and Rome: Total War that make no sense to me (online and single-player). I don't expect this machine to beast on Crysis, but it shouldn't be losing its hardware capabilities.
Has to be software, right? If anyone knows a good program for culling background apps I sure would appreciate it.
Just need this thing to keep playing games for a few more months until the warranty runs out. Thanks.
