I've got a question that really fits the garbage section.
A friend is still running XP. Suddenly he lost all sound. He set it back 2 weeks but now the mouse isn't working either.
All I can think off is to make fresh install of XP and start saving for a new pc.
Do any of you have a clever solution.

SP3
the machine is terrible slow. I noticed he doesn't really know what he's doing, think its full of crapfiles too.

The best solution is a fresh new install of XP.

As for the sluggish system you can advice him to download a freeware version of this
http://www.softpedia.com/get/[....]eak/Advanced-WindowsCare.shtml
It's an all in one solution for cleaning his disk of junk data as well as the registry
if it still did not fix the problem then a fresh reinstall is necessary, you can also try to convince him/her to upgrade to Windows 7 SP1 as long as the hardware could handle it
