What kind of PC do you have now, Kendall? How old, what make and model, and what operating system?

Have you set up for regular downloaded updates from Microsoft, assuming you're using Windows? Have you regularly defragged and cleaned up the old clutter, run an anti virus, anti spyware, anti adware program(s)? All of these can help clear up or diagnose problems. If a particular device (printer, scanner, etc.) is acting up have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling it (I have to follow my own advice--the kids' printer is acting up). Have you gone to the manufacturer's site and checked for updated drivers for your equipment?

You don't need to do these things all at once. Arrange them as a checklist and work your way through them as you have time or interest. And then let us know if it is still acting up.
