How can I fix system32 errors? I’ve had my computer a few months now, and it’s locking up and running really slow. I sometimes get system32 error messages, and I think this might be the problem. I got this computer for my birthday, and it’s been nothing but a headache here lately. Please help!

More than likely, it’s a virus. I recommend something like Malwarebytes- http://www.malwarebytes.org/ or AVG to look for bad things. If you can save your important stuff to a thumb-drive/disc/online storage, and have the Operating System disc and key, I would suggest doing a fresh, clean install of the o.s.
Could be that you accidentally deleted a file.
System32 errors are pretty serious. The system32 folder is responsible for the running of nearly all your programs. If you have errors with it, there’s a good chance that nothing is working right. Even worse, your Windows program is dependent on the system32 folder, so any corrupted files there can cause your whole computer to glitch.
I’m not sure from your description what exact system32 error it is, but that shouldn’t be an important issue. It would be if you wanted to spend more time, energy, and stress than you really need to. Looking for an error in the system32 files is worse than looking for a needle in a haystack, even if you know what you’re looking for.
Instead, I suggest you get a registry-cleaning program. My favorite one is here: http://optimize-your-pc.com/regcure/repairing_errors.php. It takes all the guesswork out of getting rid of all your system errors. After you download and install it, it’s literally just a push of the button to fix everything. Chances are that it will find problems you didn’t even know you had. Keep up with it once a month and you’ll never see an error message again.
