Anyone know why my Desktop computer which has much better hardware would run Windows7 slower than my Laptop?
Desktop is:
3ghz dual core
Asus P5K motherboard
4GB RAM
250GB Western Digital 7200 RPM SATA 3.0
8800 GT
Laptop is:
Dell 1520
2ghz dual core
2GB RAM
150GB Western Digital 7200 RPM SATA 3.0
m8600GT
The main issue is that the entire OS just seems slow and sluggish on my desktop, while the laptop is just screaming right along.
Starting up is quick and smooth on the laptop, and it takes forever for my desktop to start up. Even shutting down is slow. Just doesn't make sense.
The only thing I could really think of is that perhaps the standard drivers are playing better with my Laptop than in my Desktop. Anyone have any similar situation or know why my Desktop is so much slower?
