Answer 1

Below can help you speed up your pc:

1. Click Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools – run Disk Cleanup

2. Temporarily close Quick Launch:

Right-click on the Taskbar, click Toolbars, deselect Quick Launch

3. Open My Computer

Right-click on C:

Click Properties

Click Tools, select Error Check (check all and fix), when finished click defrag & run.

4. Click Start, Run ipconfig -renew (type ipconfig space renew)

5. Restart. Right-click on Taskbar, click Toolbars, select Quick Launch to restore



All these things should be done regularly. The more frequently they are run, the less time they take.

-Note: Games and videos are mostly graphics. Graphics create large files. If these suggestions don't help, you might need more memory.



Last, if you haven't cleaned your registry in a while. This is necessary. Your registry holds all the information regarding updates, installs, un-installs etc. Each one of those events produces a key. That key needs your PC's resources and free space. So, if you clean your registry, you make more resources available for speed. Does a registry scan if you got more than 20 errors you should clean it.

Answer 2

The reason the computer gets slow is due to the registry files becoming corrupted, or messed up, in simple terms. These files tell the computer or laptop how to operate the software installed on the system. If any of these files get messed up, the computer is not sure what to do and this will really slow down the computer. The other scenario is where you download other software, screensavers, pictures, videos, or even music, and this will somehow change the settings on a registry file. When this happens, the original program that needs that file now has the wrong instructions in it. So, it will cause the computer to run slow, or in a worse case, crash.

1- add memory chips. Low-end computers come with minimal memory to be functional. In most case, increasing the ram will help speed-up processing.

2- go to Start/All programs/Start-up and see if there are any program that you know you don't need. Then remove them through Start/Control panel/Add/Remove programs. If you are not very tech-savvy and you are not sure, it is best to leave it there.

3- anyway go to Start/Control panel/Add/Remove programs and look-up the list as not all programs are in Start-up.

4- on your desktop, keep only a minimum number of icons for the very most frequently used programs, i.e. every day. Access the less-frequently used programs through the Start menu. Absolutely get rid of all icons that are never or rarely used.

4- go to Start/All programs/Accessories/System tools and defrag your disk.

5- The anti-virus issue: anti-malware programs are notorious to be resources-consuming and to slow down computers. The solution is not to get rid of it. But if your are using a free program, you may be able to find one that is less cpu-hungry. My suggestion is AVG v7.5 (not 8.0).

All these hints are likely to improve your computer performance. But there are other more technical reasons for a slow computer. I hope this will help.
