Windows Xp Expressing Very Slow System
Hello All.
Sorry if I seem a little stupid. Recently My Windows and generally anyhting running on it has slowed down conciderable. I have tried the idea of deleteing various programmes that are not necessary and running anti virus and anti spyware. I have also defreged Both drives and run a registry cleaner. Im sorry I don't know what type of information you would want to see, but if you need any just ask. I would like some new ideas if anyone has any Thank you very much. Lloyd |

Personally I would delete everything you don't need on your comp, just be careful what you delete though.
Then I would run a full virus scan with a good program like Avast, then I'd used a cleaner like CCleaner, then use a good defragger like IObit Smart Defragger and click "Deep Optimize". Then see how your comp is running.

Ahhh I sorted that out now bu re defraging everything. Thank you. But now the system runs at the right speed but if for instance I am online and I tab down the internet.. (im on firefox) and try to click something on the desktop or another window it takes 5-10 seconds to respond. And vise versa... when I click back to the internet it slows down again... but other than that it seems to be running a lot better.. The only big programs running are explorer at 50k.. Firefox at 90k and about 5 smaller ones around 20k or less.. |
