Plastic Nev Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 Hi, as far as I am aware not much. I have quite a lot on for various reasons and don't see any slow down in normal performance. However a large number of icons can slow down the boot up a little while the system loads them up, but I would think you need a screen full for it to be excessive. It is the programs that are running in the background, and including those that start at boot up that can slow things down. Nev. Quote Need help with your computer problems?

stevel Posted March 25, 2012 Author Posted March 25, 2012 thank you mr nev thats very good of you ;) Quote
KenB Posted March 25, 2012 Posted March 25, 2012 I agree with Nev I had my screen covered in icons until I tidied them up recently. No difference in operational speed - but as Nev says - it takes seconds longer to boot up.
