Am doing regular disc defrag etc, but certain things don't work as well as they should. Particularly video editing is impossible and after hibernation or standby things tend to freeze up. Any ideas out there? Do I need to get more than my 256Mb RAM? Or is it the hard drive capacity (or lack of)?<BR /><BR />thanks, suabsout<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 02 Jun 2004 14:35:17 GMT https://community.sony.co.uk/t5/pcs-accessories/notebook-performance/m-p/112708#M128085 suabsolut 2004-06-02T14:35:17Z Re: notebook performance https://community.sony.co.uk/t5/pcs-accessories/notebook-performance/m-p/112711#M128086 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>It might be time to restore using your recovery CDs.<BR />If your notebook can take 512MB then do consider it.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 02 Jun 2004 14:39:33 GMT https://community.sony.co.uk/t5/pcs-accessories/notebook-performance/m-p/112711#M128086 kee-lo_ 2004-06-02T14:39:33Z Re: notebook performance https://community.sony.co.uk/t5/pcs-accessories/notebook-performance/m-p/112712#M128087 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>But won't I lose loads of stuff that I can't back up in doing that?
