    hi guys ive been reading around this forum for a few weeks now and find it very helpful!

    sadly though my first post is a plee for help!

    basically lastnight i did a system recovery on my laptop (wiped windows, formatted the drive then reinstalled using the disks that came with my laptop)

    ive installed everything on the drivers cd but my laptop is running REALLY slow and only has a windows experience of 1.5! :( 1.5 being the score of the processor!

    heres my system specs (not sure if theyr all the same with this model but hey im a noob! lol)


    vista 32bit
    intel core 2 duo CPU T7250 @ 2.00GHZ, 2.00GHZ
    2mb ram
    geforce 8600m GT
    220GB hdd

    here are the results from my windows system rating

    processor - 1.5
    memory (ram) - 1.7
    graphics - 2.0
    gaming graphics - 5.1
    hdd - 5.2
