    try disc defragmenting its loacated in Accessories menu. System tools…
    check if your computer is infected by a virus and remove it if it is.

    Well im guessing your using an older computer. Here is a list of things that I do t help speed mine up.

    1) Disk De-fragmenting will organize your computers hard drive to help things load faster. I use the program called “Smart Defrag”.

    You can download it for free here: http://www.iobit.com/iobitsmartdefrag.html

    2) You can fix registry errors, I do this once a month or after uninstalling a program. I use another free program called CC Cleaner. Just make sure that when you go to fix the errors that you choose to back up the files when it asks you if you want to. Along with this program you can disable certain programs from starting when your computer starts making startups much faster.

    You can download it for free here: http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download

    If you wish to put money in to speeding up your computer you can look into buying a new hard drive which might not be such a bad idea.

    This site is an excellent place to buy computer parts online, check out some hard drives here if you would like to:

    One more thing that you could do would be to upgrade your computers “RAM” which stands for Random Access Memory. If you know what kind of ram your computer takes and how much it can be ugraded to I would highly recomend doing that. If would would like to find out what kind of ram it uses and how much it can handle goto this link below and download the program and it will tell you for free: http://www.crucial.com/systemscanner/index.aspx

    I hope this helps you, in the long run though you might be better off buying a newer computer because you can get a decent more for cheaper than you might think.

    Good Luck!

    There are too many programs open at the same time . Some open as soon as you turn your computer
    on . To see what they are and disable them . go to START and at the search window type MSCONFIG , click on START UP tab and stop the unwanted programs from automatic start up.

    Slow computers are a common symptom of not keeping your system fully optimized. There are literally dozens of little tricks and tweaks you can perform to speed up your computer performance. Whether it’s a slow startup or just a general sluggishness, you can fix the problem without buying a new system. I recommend utilizing a program that can perform many of these speed tweaks automatically. Scan your system for free with it at:

    Although you have removed some programs in your computer, there are still some left componet in it. Therefore, I suggest you to clean your hard disk, run disk defragmenter. If possible, to clean you registry.

    And the most important is do not forget to run an anti-virus program.

    Good luck for you!
