[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1622383, member: 307555"] Hi Delmonte! The first problem is the memory. 2GB is not enough for Mavericks. It will run but very slowly and it will have to swap out memory space with your hard drive creating a constant move of data back and forth between the memory and hard drive. This slows everything down. Looks like you have a 350GB hard drive?? You have plenty of free space so it is not too full which is a good thing. After running Onyx which vansmith recomended, I would look into upgrading the memory. OWC and Crucial are usually recommended as being the best to work with.
