Topic: Why is my system running slowly?



The system responsiveness varies depending on the number of applications
that are open and running. Close any applications that you are not currently
using.



Increasing the system memory may also help. The computer has two
memory slots. For memory upgrades, use only 3.3V 64-bit PC-100 SDRAM
DIMM modules. For information on installing memory, please see the online
document Upgrading and Maintaining Your VAIO
