HP24a slow since purchase

Kushicat · ‎08-01-2022

Re: HP All-in-One 24-f0041a, recently given to me about two years since purchase; I noted on my browser several people stating the same model too slow since purchase. Same here with this one, even when disk was re-formatted made no difference. My regular desktop running Windows 10 about six years old, is twice to three times faster, also my little HP notebook leaves them both for dead, so to speak. Just browsing online I don't see any solution to this problem. Help!

According to the spec page that model does have One M.2 socket 3, 2280 type for SSD. By adding a M.2 drive and moving the Windows OS to that might give enough of a speed boost to help. About the only other possibility is adding memory but 8GB is usually sufficient for just web browsing. If you do that, be sure to match what memory is already installed.

Supports the following:
- PC4-17000 (DDR4-2133)
Supports 2 GB, 4 GB, 8 GB DDR4 SODIMMs

Thanks, good info, but guess I'll keep it as a second computer for the time being, eventually will have to buy a new one as these computers will not run Windows 11 according to Microsoft. Cheers.

You are welcome. Glad to help.

Yes, that computer probably is not going to able to run Windows 11, if it is struggling withe Windows 10 and the CPU is not upgrade able.
