Hi,

If your computer slow just on the startup it's easy to solve by:

start menu ------- run-----type (msconfig)--------OK
it will show a window with tabs, click on startup tab, at the end of the window click on disable all then click OK....
after that it will show a small window asking you to restart.
choose restart now then it will work faster than before.

Note: this procedure disable the programs that work with starting up.

If your computer always running slow that's mean you have a problem with hardware like (RAM,H.D.D)
or may be software like(operating system.

thanks.....
*************************************************
For a system that seems slow for no apparent reason, try this:
1. Run CCleaner it gets rid of temp files, as well as other junk on your system.
2. I use this registry cleaner, it costs around $30 but it is well worth it.
3. Run a Defrag in Windows or one like this.
Good Luck!

We saw something similar with a number of computers here, and they were infected by a virus. So, I would recommend to run a virus scan.

You might also want to check the hard disk for errors or fragmentation.
