Marry a geek!


Lol, ok...

The most effective ways to increase the subjective performance
of an old computer are:

1. Go through and uninstall unnecessary programs ESPECIALLY things
that start up when you boot or log in such as chat clients.

2. Install as much RAM as the board will support. This can be
expensive if the RAM you need is very old. Used computer stores or Ebay can
be useful resources.

3. Upgrade the video card t the fastest one you can fit and afford.
