@Liquid I got the Model No.
Model No.: PCG-7113L
that's a pretty old model from 2008 (?). it says it has a 1.73 ghz dual core pentium and 2gb of ddr2. that's pretty :flabbynsick: by modern standards

but it should still be ok for simple internet stuff or whatever. try running malwarebytes, and maybe looking at the Resource Monitor to see if something is gobbling up resources

I honestly wouldn't invest too much money in upgrading such an old machine. IMO it would be less of a headache to just replace it with whatever newer cheap laptop/notebook/tablet

PC Brehs, anybody use Adobe Premier for video editing? I have it and I'm trying to use it to make some highlight gameplay videos but it's a bit complex and way more than I'm trying to learn right now. (just want to cut up some clips, make a montage and throw some music over it)

I've heard Sony Vegas is much easier to use and more straight forward. I wouldn't mind trying it out, is there a particular version/file name I could search for to get a decent copy?

PM if necessary

I'm going to try this, but I see that I'll have to delete like 4 programs that this shyt forces me to install just to get to it.

I used Sony Vegas for my videos. Not that they were professionally done or anything but they came out alright in my opinion and sony vegas was pretty easy to use :yeshrug:

you can just buy (:troll:) it from many of the locations where you would buy (:troll:) a product from on the internet

@Htown Bum its better just to grab a used cheap laptop for $200 on craigslist or something.

I won't even bother upgrading it tbh
