My laptop is starting to slow down

Morning Geeks.

When i try and watch a 4 minute clip on youtube and the like, my computer is taking probably fifteen minutes to Buffer it.

Looking at the rest of the web is lighnening fast, as is uploading pictures etc.

When i first bought the computer, youtube etc was the quickest i'd ever seen on a Laptop, but now its beginning to chap my A55. Any ideas??

Oh, and i'm about as computer literate as a Monkfish. So go easy.

right click on my computer, go down to properties, click that, then run the disk clean up application.

This will clear your temp files etc.

OK, all the p**n you have on your laptop, burn a few DVDs and remove it. The floppy drive is probably all sticky.

Or it could just be youtube was hitting a busy period ?

Failing that install linux

I have noticed a slow down with YouTube over the last month or so!

Did it used to be super fast, Dan?

make sure you have the latest version on flash for youtube, in my experience haveing the older versions slow down loading times etc.
