No problems here. I run defrag rarely, 3 months or so. if that. If this is an MQ computer call tech support. Run a full system scan too.

Thanks. Cannot call techs any more since the new QCare Self service. Can only call if cannot work. I will try defrag
what new e-mail? - I dont think I have ever defraged

Why defrag? I have had my MQ computer for probably 5 to 6 years now... never once defraged it.
I don't have new e-mail... I don't even get old e-mail...
Is this something new?

Usually, you can speed up a computer simply by going to internet options and deleting your temporary files and your cookies. It's the simplest thing to do and usually does the trick. Also, antivirus programs do more harm than good and can make your computer crash. Just make sure you have a good fire wall and windows defender on your PC security and make sure you do all your windows updates especially the security ones. One other thing, go to start up (run msconfig) and uncheck all the start up programs. You do not need them running at start up. They will also slow a PC down to nothing. Hope this helps.

Running Windows Programs On A MAC Sep 25, 2010I have an opportunity to get a brand new MAC as a gift. My boyfriend has an extra one. I work on the BeyondText platform and remember seeing someone on here had a MAC but had a way to split it so her Windows programs ran on the MAC somehow. Tech support at Transcend says it won't work on a MAC.
Or maybe I was wondering if an external driver could be used that was Windows and would run on the MAC. Probably a pipe dream, but a MAC! Oh I would love it! Anyb ...
