  1. There are MANY reasons for computer slow downs:

    a] not enough memory

    b] too many programs starting up with windows at boot up time

    c] spyware

    d] too many junk files

    e] too many restore points

    Routine maintenance the will definitely help restore your PC's speed to what it could/should be...

    1. Increase your Virtual Memory, then

    2. Download and run PageDefrg (free tool from Microsoft).

    3. Run MSCONFIG and deactivate any startup programs that you DON'T want/need to run at boot time

    4. Uninstall any unwanted programs

    5. Ensure that you have more than 500 MB's of free space on your C: drive. (if not, it's not IF your PC will crash...it's WHEN your PC crashes). If not, move your Music/Videos offline to DVD's or CD's.

    6. Purge all temp folders and internet temp files

    7. Run defrag again after all the cleanup you just did.

    8.install Registry cleaner and run daily

    Use the tool: http://downloadlk.net/themosteffectivere... [if you do not have one]

    9. install Antispyware and run daily

  2. daily training, eating healthy, and vitamin supplements will all help make your computer run faster. be sure to keep it hydrated with plenty of water, over heating will accelerate fatigue and lower its speed.

  3. Check http://www.pc-optimizer-pro.com

  4. There is a nice article on slow computer  and its solution. Have a look on it.It may help you to resolve your problem.

  5. Add more RAM

  6. have you tried going to add/remove programs. and remove programs that take up a large amout of gigs? things you dont use. that would help alot. also. install spysweeper. from http://www.spysweeper.com. it dectects trojans and other viruses that can take a toll on your computer. also. limewire and AIM can slow your computer down because they take up alot of space. and i know limewire [the free one] brings in backdoor trojans and such. so you should take care of that. and give your computer a good sweep about twice a month.

  7. There's all kinds of ways.

    Try the following:

    Defragment.

    Run the Disk Cleanup.

    Check for sypware or malware or viruses by doing a virus scan. I reccommend either AVG or Avira and SpyBot Search & Destroy.

    Then download CCleaner to clean out all cache files and help fix any bad registries.

  8. Did you defrag your hard drive and scan for viruses? Did you run registry cleaner and disk cleanup? How about checking the disk for errors? I hope this check list helps.  

  9. Using a registry cleaner can clean up your computer and then make your computer faster,Why?the reason is that there may be some registry errors and remnant,corrupt files and temp files in your computer to cause "computer slow".

    Every time you install and uninstall software on your computer and surfing online you create junk in the computer registry.over time, the registry can grow to enormous proportions, especially if the various programs you've installed do not do a good job of deleting and/or updating it's Registry entries.You need to scan and clean your computer with registry cleaner to make it fast.Good Registry Cleaner will improve your computer and Internet performance dramatically!

    There are some comparison and review of TOP 5 registry cleaners.
