    Ok, so I've read that hP puts on all this stuff that loads at startup and that you should get rid of it. Can a klutz like me do that. How would I know what to get rid of?

    Go to the hardware section and look at the notebook thread about optimizing, it works.

    I did exactly what it said and it's work great, freed up about 100+ megs of memory. Also, reload windows and just the apps you want and it will work even better.
