    The specs of the computer will help us help you.

    Have you defragged? Cleared out malware, etc.

    You can go into msconfig(through START and 'RUN') and turn off a lot of services that are not needed for everyday computing. If this is a home computer, I suggest turning off 'Fast User Switching' as well as 'Shadow Volume Copy' as those take up a bunch of resources
