My Mom's Windows XP Computer is overall slow, freezing & locking up mostly all the time. I don't have the money right now to pay for Premium Support through Microsoft to get it fixed. Can anybody please help me get this issue resolved immediately! It's been like this for a while. I just want my mom's computer to run normally like any other computer would. Please! Let me know. I appreciate it. Thanks.

    I'm confused of what to do with the video thing? It just comes up with Notepad. A text document. Please help me with that. The top seven processes are as follows: System Idle Process, firefox.exe, svchost.exe, taskmgr.exe, alg.exe, Updates from HP, hpqtra08.exe. What do you mean by values? CPU? Memory Usage: firefox.exe, the numbers keep going up. I can't give you a specific number. Maybe because I am using it now? MsMpEng.exe, 35,996 K, explorer.exe, 17,848 K, svchost.exe, 12,064 K, taskmgr.exe, 5,724 K, msseces,exe, 4,040 K, hpqtra08.exe, 3,664 K.
