Solve : pc is slower after installing 3 GB RAM?

1.	Solve : pc is slower after installing 3 GB RAM?
Answer» I recently installed 3 GB RAM and my pc which has windows vista on an acer 5100 notebook,was running great when I first put in the new RAM. It is now so slow a turtle could run faster than it. Is the problem in the websites I go to and or is it the hard drive? I think it is cluttered with junk from all these websites and adware I don't know. Where can I and how much to fix this issue? I'm about to get fed up with the darn thing. Any help would be great thanks.If you think it's a malware issue then go HERE and WORK steps 2 and 4. If step 4 doesn't turn up anything then it likely isn't a malware issue.I'm a beginner don't forget. I don't know what it is. That's what I asked for so still do the steps anyway? Thanks.It should be easy to rule in or out malware by running the MalwareBytes scan. Where do I get the Malwarebytes scan at?Go to Evilfantasy's 1st reply, click "Here" it is blue in color, then once you are at that page, scroll down to step 4 You will see "Download MalwareBytes" it is ALSO blue in color this should automatically bring up a small window Click save file... and then follow the instructions for using and installing the software Quote from: joepinger on March 12, 2009, 06:59:58 PM Where do I get the Malwarebytes scan at? also, in addition to malwarebyte, you can go get a-squared free for a second opinion, as programs don't detect everything 100%. Here's the link to get a-squared free. HTTP://filehippo.com/download_asquared/ This is just if you want a second opinion to DOUBLE check and like Malwarebyte software, they both update everyday so should be good.Please don't install a=squared. We need logs. Without them we don't know what we are dealing with or how to fix it. @joepinger - You have to read my replies carefully. All of the information you need will always be there.Quote from: evilfantasy on March 13, 2009, 06:13:40 AM Please don't install a=squared. We need logs.

I never said you needed it, i meant if you wanted A-Squared free later, as a double check afterwards when malware cleaning process is done.
