My laptop runs slowly, I don't have a clue what to do

So basically my laptop is running very slowly and I was wondering if I could get any tips to free up some space and make it run faster. I have an Acer Aspire AMD Dual Core Processor C-50 / AMD Radeon HD 6250 / 2GB DDR3 Memory / 320 GB HDD. To show you how much I know about computers, I read that off the sticker on my laptop. I've ran CCleaner and Disk Cleanup and also Disk Defragmenter, it did help a little but it's still slow. I also deleted most of the stuff in the libraries folder. No videos, few pictures and no word documents or the like. I've had this computer for 5 or 6 years now, and Ive downloaded stuff over the years and deleted stuff as well. (I don't know what needs to be on the computer and what doesn't anymore) In the interest of full disclosure the only game I have on my laptop is World of Warcraft which runs terribly slow. Again any tips and tricks would be much appreciated!

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
