My computer is sooooooo s..l...o...w !!!!

Try installing free 'spybot' or 'spyware blaster' (you can download them) Also, "AVG" Anti virus by Grisoft has a free trial version that's great. I am a firm believer in MAX memory also. Do you know how fast your CPU is? Ghz or is your computer older? I am a computer tech and find that uninstalling unneeded software helps also. If your hard-drive is full it can take longer too. There are so many different things that cause your PC to slow up. Removing the programs from the startup was a smart first move also. Without being there and knowing nothing about your system, it's hard to say what's going on with it. If you have downloaded a bunch of stuff in the past, all these things could be running in the background using all your system resources also. Regular maintenance is very important too. I have an awesome superfast computer that I built, fast CPU (3.2 Ghz) and 2 Ghz memory, it runs really good and smooth, HOWEVER when my virus protection is running, it takes so much system resource that it actaully slows my system up too. It's smart to keep your tower blown out with compressed air so your system doesn't overheat and the fans don't get clogged with dust and fail, burning up your CPU (which is costly to replace). Hope this helped somewhat.

Geeze, all these suggestions! What to do!!!??? I am in Tahoe, if you were up here, I would just come help you for FREE! I tend to help my friends and work on their computers for free, hard to take money from friends! You're my friend on here!SO, Are you in Tahoe? He he! Even if you were in Carson City or Reno, I would come help! Kim :)

Try to boot up in Safe Mode if you are in Windows, i guess Windows usually Nourish Viruses,etc.. Arrange for Norton or Kaspersky Antivirus. get rid of few viruses, etc. Backup your data.. Reinstall Operating System.. And then enjoy Viruses again... So, please install OS once a month... You can't get rid of viruses, rather viruses can't get rid of you.. And the method above may help you get rid of the virus.. Please reply about my suggestion if you like!!!!

Hi there, I would suggest that you try to re-format your computer. I had a similar problem a while ago, and re-formatting sorted it for me. In addition, do you have many icons on your desktop as they will add to the amount of time that it takes for it to load up. Lastly. check for how many processes you are running at any one time - you might be running unnecessary processes without even meaning to. I'm no computer expert, but hope I have helped? Good Luck!

I think you have too many applications running see in the task manager how many process are running and delete some then your computer may run fast. Do you how to unselect the startup programs do it then you will not find more time to see your desktop.

Your computer momery is probapy low. You will have to buy a new one, check on ebay they have cheap com memory. Or maybe u have a virus on there without reaziling it. I hope this helps.

To me, it sounds like your Computer is bogged down, and you might need to do a System Restore, or do a major defrag, etc. to see if this works for you. Sometimes I find even myself when you are doing a lot of extra things online and saving a lot of extra stuff, there are fragments of programs and such that get stuck in your Computer and can really slow down your abilities to do something. I know there are many times when I have to remember to do these type of things myself when online as well. All I can say is I hope you are able to solve these issues, and wishing you the Best.

I think that there are still traces like cookies and such and temporary files that bog down the computer. I'm not sure why it takes so long, but I guess that's my two cents... what did it get ya? Diddley squat because I am sure my rambling probably ain't helping ya.. scratching your head yet? lol have a wonderful day.

Maybe your virtual memory has low memory. Try upgrading your video and RAM. I hope this helps a little bit.

Maybe the Pc you bought have a low mem0ry or ram thats why the command is so slow.

I advise you to check the disposition of the computer.Perhaps it is a certain part that has worn out. And perhaps it is to need to reset the system.

Ha, you said you earn lots of money online, and the hacker in mylot was interested in your money and so on in your computer. Security software is not the best way to prevent the newest trojan viruses but the newest system patches and stronger password of your system.

maybe you have a worm virus,.. worm virus never seen in hardware/spyware proctection try to download a anti worm virus for that i think you get that in a malicious downloading sites.

i think you just need to use the system restore function of windows... nothing else... just start your computer in safe mode, and from system tools select the system restore application.. and restore it to the nearest backup date.. it will hopefully solve your problem... good luck

Well if all else fails just do what I usually end up doing, which is a system restore. Sucks but sometimes it for the best and definitely speeds up the computer.

Do you have spybot search and destroy software? You can download it free if you don't. You can use this to detect adware problems that slow down computer. For the meantime, try going to internet option and clear your private data, the cookies, the history, etc. This process is helping me when my computer is slowing down.

It looks like you have some serious virus infections. My computer was exactly like that. At one time it got so bad that it would not even start. And that's exactly where your computer is heading as well. The viruses delete important registry keys and startup files. You have to reprogram your computer. Scan all your files and then save them to a dvd or something. Carry it to a computer tech. or anyone that knows how to build computers or you could do it yourself. Reprogram the computer. It's the only way out. The software has been damaged badly and would continue showing missing registry keys and files.

Delete everything you do not use. Old music files, upload your photos on to photobucket and maybe even a back up site or burn them to a cd and delete them. Look through everything. Delete temp. files, cookies... DO you use firefox? It has settings to automatically delete stuff you don't need. Get Norton Antivirus, it catches things other antivirus don't.

try to defrag it and clean it.

maybe your computer is loaded with a lot of programs that you install and you'll never anticipated,or you might not updated your anti-virus that's why your computer runs slow because the virus enters to your system... i suggest to call your technician to check what is wrong with your computer he/she might have the right answer to your problem it could be the BIG help for you. we'll good luck to you and i hope that i help you with it ...c",)
