  1. wow. I tell you what. You can probably just sell that piece to some antique collector, use the money & buy a 3.0+ ghz processor :|


  2. its really too old to be able to make significant changes, a ram ugrade will help, and making your operating system run as efficently as possible is a good way

  3. well im sorry to tell u but there is no way to speed up ur processor but...! u can just try to speed up ur windows i guess u use xp just right click on my computer choose properties go to advanced then click on performance settings and choose adjust for best preformance this will speed ur xp , u have still another option ur pc is 446 mhz its first generation in p3 which its can be speed it up till 1.5 may be u can find a used one in used pc shops .

  4. Well... technically speaking, you could try overlocking it, if its even capable of being overlclocked. However, even if you do, it wont solve anything as that is an incredibly slow CPU.

    Time to upgrade.

  5. To speed up your computer and free up space and memory for free:

    Go to the Start Menu> Run

    Type in "appwiz.cpl"

    Uninstall whatever you don't need.

    Next, go to Start> Run and type in "msconfig".

    Go to the Startup Tab and uncheck everything you don't want to startup. If you want, you can uncheck everything, and your anti-virus will still restart itself when you log on.

    Now go to My Computer> Hard Drive> Documents and Settings> [USER NAME]> Local Settings> and delete everything inside the Temp Folder. (This is a hidden folder so you will need to have "show hidden files and folders" checked in Folder Options) All the files in this folder are just temporary files that your Internet stored for certain websites.

    Next, you should install CCleaner; it will get rid of alot of temporary files on your computer. It also has a registry repair system, which is easily the best free one available on the Internet:

    Another option is to try defragmenting your computer.

    Go to the Start Menu and go to All Programs

    Go to Accessories and System Tools.

    Choose Disk Defragmenter and when it loads click defragment.

    Next, go to Device Manger (Start> RightClick My Computer> Properties> Hardware Tab> Device Manager) and expand all listings. Now rightclick and update all drivers.

    Another thing I would say is to compress your files if you already haven't.

    Open My Computer and right click on your hard drive

    Check the Compress Drive button and let it do its thing.

    Finally, make sure your Hard Drive doesn't have any bad sectors. Go to My Computer> Right Click Hard Drive> Properties> Tools Tab> Check Now> Check both boxes and Start. It will ask you to reboot, so reboot. This will clear out any bad sectors on your Hard Drive.

    These are short-term solutions however. The easiest way is to just upgrade the RAM on your system, but at least the ways above are free.

    Good Luck =]
