Hi, yeah I've done all the obvious. I've also removed most of the documents I've created on my laptop also photos and music but it's not really made any difference. I haven't got anything on my machine software wise that I can get rid of. I did wonder if emails might have an impact as I get and send around 100 a day sometimes with big attachments. But I'm sure someone advise that emails are small files and shouldn't make a lot of difference. Am stumped!

Hi, I have an ongoing issue with my Vista laptop where the available memory appears to get less, even if don't use the laptop. It's under 5GB at the moment but only a month ago was 12GB. I've tried to move any documents to an external hard drive, run defrag, pc tune up routine etc etc and I now can't get it above 5GB.... which it totally unacceptable. Has anyone any ideas on how I can free up some more memory. I'm worried that the whole thing will crash which I can afford to happen as this is my business laptop and I can't afford to replace it yet.

I am trying to install a Vista compatible piece of software (Act 2011) onto my laptop. I already have Act 2007 so this is simply an upgrade routine to the latest version. When inserting the disk, autoplay begins but then I get a message that the software cannot be installed because it needs XP Service Pack 3. Obviously I can't installed XP SP3 on a Vista OS. The laptop has always been Vista so I don't know why the software has this conflict in recognising this. Have also tried copying the software exe file to the laptop and running from there but all I get is a window saying Access Denied! Have also checked with software info and it is definately compatible with Vista. Have tried resolving with Sage directly but getting nowhere. How can I get the install to recognise that my laptop has Vista installed and not XP?
