Hi TRANSFORMBASE1,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I would like to take a moment and thank you for using the forum, it is a great place to find answers.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I would be happy to try and help you, but I need more information. What exact model on HP computer do you have? How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?. What operating system are you running?
Now are you trying to tell me that your system is performing very slowly, if not, would you please provide more details so I may understand the issue.
Here is a link to Improving System Performance without Adding Memory (Windows 8) to help, if that was your issue.
