A look at what is currently available on eBay
Y does my computer keep slowing down while playing vice city? I have 256mb video, 1gb mem. 1.5ghz intel pro?
I just added 512mb of memory, and the video card is upgraded from the stock 16mb card, but it still runs the same! I have also upped the virtual memory. I am stumped! If there isn't a good reason I guess I'll have to return both and buy a new comp, which I was trying to avoid. Thanks! P.S. the 1.5ghz pro was short for processor.
There are a several reasons why your computer is freezing/slow. First question is when the last time you cleaned your registry. Having a corrupted registry can cause a whole host of errors and problems. Freezing up is one of them. If you have a lot of unnecessary registry keys that are hogging up your computer resources. Your computer is bound to choke. Scan your registry with a good registry cleaner. If you pull up more than 20 errors or duplication, clean your registry.

2. Depending on your RAM specs and your computer usage. This could also be the issue. Having an insufficient amount of free space does not allow your RAM to function properly. If you are using a lot of RAM by net surfing or other activities without enough empty space your will get freezes. You don't need to buy new RAM but you should increase your free space by removing unnecessary data and perhaps increasing your virtual memory. The below link will show you how.
3. Spyware could be the culprit, so do a scan and see if your computer is infected.

4. That last area is a hardware driver. This could be the problem if new hardware has been added to the system. So, the drivers should still be up to date. So try the first two suggestions and see if you can get your computer to stop freezing/speed up.
Check your drivers. Hope this helps.
