PC Slowdown

I have a pentium 350 MHz , 64Mb , 8Gb disk Win '98 SE . Lately after booting up , I hear a lot of disk action after the Windows main screen , and it takes quite a while until I can start working . The McAfee says there is no virus , I've done a defrag/maintenance etc. , have tried to remove any AdWare and even disabled the McAfee system scan . Have also checked the WD disk with their Data Life Guard programs and it reports no errors . Any ideas on this ?
 
Put more RAM in it, RAM is dirt cheap right now, and it iwll more than double your performance most likely. it sounds like it is slowign down, because alot of programs are loading into your memory at bootup.
 
Have you checked if anything new has been added to your bootup? When was the last time you formated and reinstalled?
After extensive usage and installing, unintalling software, systems will get bogged down. Defragmenting will clear some clutter but nothing beats a format reinstallation.
