I'm not normalising wasted resources, but 8 GB of RAM was a basic minimum standard to do anything on a computer 10 years ago... Perhaps even more.

Unless you're running a very, and I mean a VERY, cut-down operation system for none-intensive tasks, there is no way 4 GB of RAM is useful for anything.

Are you still on a dual core CPU too?
