I have had this computer since 2007 and it works. Periodically the internal processes overwhelm the system and I cannot work. I have had to do factory resets twice in 7 years and was about to go for #3 this week, when the system just corrected itself through no help of mine.
-Is this a routine problem with Vista?
-Would upgrade to Windows 7 help or would I be opening myself to a world of new problems?
-I followed support advise to disable "Load startup items" on the config. Is this a longterm solution or should this be used as a troubleshooting tool only?
Thanks in advance!
