If your computer is not working properly when it is switched on, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.

you could either get a biger memory, delete something off ur computer or up date ur anti-virus software it mite b due 2 run out so it wud mke ur pc run slw
How many programs do you have opening when you power up? Did you just install a new program?
Having an antivirus program on your computer is NOT a guarantee that your computer is virus free. Many people do not keep their security software updated. And even updated security programs are only as good as the company’s programmers keep it updated themselves. It’s best to run an online scan from a different company about once a week to make sure.
1. get rid of most of the start up programs in the START UP menu.
2. CRAP CLEANER!!!
3. Then, AVG!
4. Then, Adaware, by Lavasoft
5. GET shootthemessenger!!!
all are on google.com or http://kartoo.com search engines
Get a FREE LiveCDrom of http://pclinuxos.com and if it seems to run faster, even though it is just running LIVE in the CDrom drive!
Your computer might have hardware issues or some failed RAM.
Anyway, this LiveCDrom will run in the CD, boot in RAM disc, and test all hardware for you, as it boots up! Then, click on the command console in the bottom tool bar, and type "dmesg", for the start logs you can scroll through!
more ram
What you can do is… delete some files… Memory is also a factor of slowing down the performance. Try to get rid of some files you don’t really need. I hope this can help you. (NOte:bigger file sizes… the better!) 🙂
go to the run line
type in
msconfig
open startup
uncheck all boxes except systray, if indeed it is listed.
should help the boot speed.
also, go to control panel, system icon, open advanced, open settings on the top line
and checkmark ‘best performance.
that will speed up the computer greatly
more RAM should help,also u could have too many thing running at start up go to msconfig and uncheck everything
download a good antispyware program update it and your antivirus and run them in safe mode http://bartman1.blogspot.com/ this site has more ideas
1. Try Adaware by Lavasoft. This will look for spyware, malware, and other "wares" that are screwing with your system.
2. Look at Registry cleaners and defrag-ers. You’ll be amazed at what’s probably trying to start and can’t. Google "Registry Cleaner" or "Registry Defrag" – there is a lot of good software out there.
