Using this lappy right now... no offense but I think it's shit ;___; It's faithful, though, albeit slow, and perfect for simple web browsing, although Facebook and some of its games makes it lag. ;___;

If you have the Windows XP disk, totally wipe the hard drive and reinstall everything. That is what I have done (was having the same problems you describe and its working just as fast as the optiplex I am currently on.

Hey guys! i'd like to ask something: my latitude d600 laptop's battery doesn't charge, it runs on DC. when adapter is disconnected, the laptop turns off. so where is the problem- battery or adapter?

[bluebirdvision]

I had to replace my battery. Mine had the same symptoms.

my old dell never takes that long to boot... its not a bad laptop, but has very low "specs" good for simple online computing or keeping some files and such, but now i have a quad core and barely use the D600

@dodongrmado Mine runs Half Life 2 in 1280x(something) with almost no lag. Do you properly manage the laptop? I still have mine in use to this day.

[ARC07693]

I had this laptop. It was bought used and died 2 months later.

Its my good 'ol piece of shit i use for playing online SAMP... but its a good laptop, an old laptop, but is made for what it is: SOME games from then, and simple file useage.

[aqualily625]

guys...obviously if you clutter this laptop with too many files and programs its gonna lag. its like that for every computer. i have had this laptop for years-im actually using it right now- and i delete unnecessary files regularly and have never experienced issues.
