Hi,
I need help.
My laptop has become sluggish in just about all operations, starting, running, shutting down.
I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-1AS
It is running Vista Premium.
IEP version 9
Office 2010

I am sure that you need more information but until you tell me I won't know.

I have been through the start up via msconfig and unchecked some duplicated operations but no change.

Living in Cayman Islands, so no reliable tech support here.
