I know I am pushing my machine to the limit. I am running Adobe creative suite (PS and LR) and pushing my limits with that, but until I can afford something else, this is the way it is. Recently a friend added me to her business plan for Norton, and upgraded my security. It seems that since I added PS, it has bogged this lovie down and I could go take a nap in between any function. Seriously. I am frustrated. I have tried optimizing and defragging with no changes. I have malware bytes checked it, and nothing. Any ideas? I am at my wits end. It is so beyond slowwww....
