The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022.

    My inspiron 1520 has been running slowly lately. I reinstalled vista yesterday, and it was running fine. All i did today was forward a port for utorrent. I scanned for viruses,none. I repaired my registry. But surfing the web is slow. Playing bf2, the lowest server ping is 750 which is insanely high.

    Are you sure its your computer and not your internet connection?
    Try surfing on another computer on your network.
