Been meaning to get it cleared up for ages.....

What needs doing?

Titchy Sony Vaio, has all plug in devices - inc A/D & E drive printer etc, as well as psion gold card - so cannot download anything onto disc from internet (as e drive uses same port). I can fit it into handbag tho!
Basically very slow to start up. Takes about 7 mins before I can log in my password, then another 4 - 5 mins before screen is loaded.
It has 2 x 'found new device' wizard pop-ups which I just cancel, before I can start using it.

I'm not the administrator for it, tho do have to log my user password to enter.... I dont have admin password either.
Needs everything being wiped (I think) then re-loading..

Ideas? - might be a job for a yukky day?

Let me know if up your street

We do have the dinosaur puter upstairs, which we find quick to use - I only use the laptop now when wanting to be sociable downstairs.
