Well, to start off, my computer is a Dell Inspiron Mini 10v netbook. I understand they suck, it was a Christmas gift from my mother and I am getting a new one by February.
Anyways, I have noticed since April that my computer starts up fine, "fast" as far as a netbook goes, then when I watch YouTube videos over time or play Minecraft, over time it starts to get unbearably laggy. I know there is something wrong with my sub-par nuisance spawn of crap netbook, but I do not know the cause. Please help, I am extremely fed up and I just want to get through until February.
Netbooks are laggy. I'm typing from one now. I can't even play terraria! It's lightning quick on my desktop but the fact is. Netbooks are slow. Sorry to dis-appoint you.
Hello, I don't usually follow threads that I post in. So if you would like to have a civilized chat / reply / argument that is of the utmost importance, just PM me. =)
Sadly, netbooks do not have the same power as desktops or laptops. Your best bet is to wait it out till February.
I second this as well. If you can try to request a desktop. I'm pretty sure you could get one around the same price range that would preform 10X better. Make sure your that what your doing is the only thing going on, on your netbook. Haveing multiple web browser tabs open could slow it down.

then delete all the files in %temp%
ALso you can Defrag your computer just <google computer defrag>
Make sure it ain't overheating too and close useless applications/ tasks.
Edit: Scan for spyware and defrag helps too.
I agree

The laptop I request is as follows: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834215163
I don't think I need a desktop, when this thing is pretty much as powerful as one.
No, that is really not as powerful as a similarly priced desktop.
However, it isn't horrible for the price, laptop wise (GPU is weak though)
its out of stock lulz
