i have a 5 year old pc, which for some reason continuously crashes and when it doesnt crash, it is really, really slow. what can i do?

here are its stats:

Intel Celeron 433MHz
184MB ram
68% system resources free
Available space on drive C: 6087MB of 8040MB (FAT32)

if you need any more information, you'll have to tell me where to get it, cos i dont have a clue!

What version of Windows are you running? But you should really back up everything you want and wipe the hard-drive then start again if you can. You've got enough RAM, hard-drive space and CPU power that everything should work fine. How long since the PC was last wiped clean, if ever?

The computer just getting random stuff stuck on it is the most common reason for a computer to act slow but there are more serious reasons, hardware problems but they are pretty unlikely.
