Downloading windows 10 and installing tonight

Hmm I'm suprised at that.If it's running slow ded try seeing what programs are starting up when you boot it up.type in msconfig select start up and see how many things are checked to start up.Should only need 3 or 4.

Yeah I did that the other day Les it's only got Chrome & AVG. It also freezes for 15/20 secs sometimes. Maybe it needs wiping and re-installing

could be overheating as laptops can do-is it well ventilated ie make sure you raise the bottom of laptop clear of anything so the warm air can dissipate.If still struggling then a format is always the best option.
