I recently installed Ubuntu 14.04 32 Bit, doesn't work right

Asked by mbigari

I just installed Ubuntu 14.04 32 bit with updates on my second laptop. I'm having some major issues. It's running very choppy, and freezes up! When I open up random programs it takes a minute to clear so I can read them. Any suggestion?

I suggest you check your RAM using Memtest86 from Grub as a good starting point

Is this under Applications? Also what would you do next if ram isn't the issue?

Hold SHIFT at boot and select the Memtest86 using cursor keys

Can you help with this problem?
