[QUOTE="Marcushbk, post: 1427087, member: 263158"] Hello, Recently for the past 2 months my Mac Mini 2gb ram is rrreeeeallllyyy slow. It freezes when logging in to thing such as twitter or youtube (ex: while typing my username it freezes). I am a gamer and play indie games such as Minecraft so when I am playing minecraft it is very slow and crashes half the time and back then i would not have these problems. I go to activity monitor and see that I have plenty of ram left to process applications but its still really slow I have always 700-450mbs of ram and my computer is still slow. I have 51gbs of disk space still so I guess thats not the problem but I think I have gotten a virus on my Desktop, I've had this computer since 2009 and haven't had problems like this until a month or two ago. Other examples of my slow/lag computer is when I Cmd+Spacebar to do a search it take about 25 seconds to load up that single bar to find something on my computer. It takes about 1 or even 2 minutes to load an application at some times but always 30 seconds. Any suggestions? I'm having a hard time with the computer but I am going to get a new gaming Desktop (alienware x51) soon for a better experience of gaming and no I did not get the mac for gaming at first but I got it for school/work but now since Im into gaming since the steam for mac came out I really enjoyed it. Thank you for reading, Hope I can find a good answer. -Marcus [/QUOTE]
