Computer Cleanup/Repair?
I've had a Dell PC for about 5 or 6 years and for the past few months i've been getting messages that theres a corrupt file on it. I know there's lots of crap on the computer that I don't use and it's been running super slow for a while now.
Anyone know where I can take it to have it cleaned up and approx how much it costs?
I know I could probably just buy a new computer, but this is an extra computer that I keep at my dads so that there's internet there. I also have old pics and my itunes on that computer.
TIA

Re: Computer Cleanup/Repair?
Have you thought about reformatting it? You can do it yourself, as long as you have your recovery disk that you got with the computer.

the recovery disk will erase all of your data.
Back everything up first, then you can do this...

Yes, forgot to mention that. 
I assumed everyone backs up...
