Hello & Welcome,

Can you tell me the FULL Make (brand) and Model Number of the device you are working with?

Can you also tell me the AGE of this device and when this issue first began?

Thanks

Approximately 8 yrs old, today.

Hi again,

Sorry for the delay. My system seems to be really slow today.

At 8 years old, there is a very good chance that the battery in your unit needs to be replaced. That is what I would do as a first step if you want to keep using this older unit.

I have a link to a site that sells battery "kits" (battery and tools) below. They even have a video that shows how the job is done right there on the page.

Note: You can find the battery by itself for a lower price (search Amazon) if you already have all the tools, so you may want to check into that.

I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have more questions.
==================================================
If you would like any additional information or have more questions please don’t hesitate to ask!

Please only rate my answer when you are satisfied with the service I have provided. IF you feel the need to click either "Helped a little" or "I expected more", please stop because this will result in a negative mark on my feedback record. Instead, please reply to me via the CONTINUE CONVERSATION or REPLY link/button with any further issues you have. I will be happy to continue further and do everything I can to provide you with the service you seek.

My answer may not be "good news", but is an accurate & honest answer.
Many times the only "fix" will be to repair or replace a failed device, so please do not hold that against me.

Take Care, Greg A.
