    Hey, my asus g50v is acting really slow lately, doesn;t load my videos quick in a folder anymore or pictures from my camera and sometimes lags when browsing the internet. Any solution to this?

    There's a few things you can try...
    1. Scan your computer for any viruses or malware.
    2. Delete all unnecessary programs that you do not use
    3. Type "msconfig" in the windows search bar and uncheck any unnecessary startup programs.
    4. Perform a disk cleanup
    5. Defrag your hard drive

    If your hard drive is nearly full (ie more than 80% full), try and free up some space.
