My old laptop use to be like that.hare racer wrote:The problem is that my laptop is nearly 10 years old and is knackered. It just won't do it and I can't afford another this side of Xmas. And my phone which is my preferred choice isnt capable enough to do it either, I have been told that I need a more powerful version but cannot upgrade until October. I will keep persevering though.
You're almost certainly running XP I would think? Which is not ideal for being on the net anymore with support no longer offered anyway.
My garage PC is in the same boat.
Depending on your use a decent tablet may be the way forward? There's apps for almost everything now including photobucket. I often use mine or my phone for posting these days.
Not nearly as expensive as a decent laptop though they do have some limitations.

Re: engine out
I have a 12 year old laptop and I downloaded and installed Linux, a free alternative to Windows, which has revived it. I'm typing this on a little underpowered netbook that I've installed Linux as well as XP. You can squeeze more life out of old things (as well you know)
