Below are steps for Microsoft Windows users that can help speed up the computer or determine why the computer is running slow.
REMOVE UNIMPORTANT SOFTWARE
If you have a program that is rarely used alone should uninstall the application, because the application only be rubbish and only slow-slow down a PC. You can uninstall through the control panel.
DELETE TEMP FILES
As a computer runs programs, temporary files are stored on the hard drive. Deleting these temp files can help improve computer performance.
First, we suggest using the Windows Disk Cleanup utility to delete temporary files and other files no longer needed on the computer.
Unfortunately, the Disk Cleanup may not delete every file in the temp directory. Therefore, we also suggest deleting temporary files manually. To do this, open the Start menu and type %temp% in the Search field. In Windows XP and prior, click the Run option in the Start menu and enter %temp% in the Run field. Press Enter and a Temp folder should open. You can delete all files found in this folder and, if any files are in use and cannot be deleted, they can be skipped.
CORRUPTED, FRAGMENTED OR BAD HARD DRIVE
Slow computer problems can be caused by damage to the hard disk. For example:
- hard drive is long, so the rpm decreases
- disk errors / bad sectors
- hard drive is fragmented
- low disk space
- repair damage to the hard drive with a tool checkdisk.
- do disk defragmenter on a regular basis
- upgrade hard drive capacity to add or replace hard drives
- avoid the hard disk of dust, shock and overheating.
MEMORY UPFRADE
Usually slow computer because of the lack of capacity of the installed RAM.
we
suggest computers have a minimum of 1GB of memory (RAM) for 32-bit
system and 2GB for a 64-bit system. By having enough memory for programs
to run within memory, your computer will not need to swap information
stored in memory to the swap file. If the hard drive light is constantly
active, it can be an indication the computer is frequently swapping
information between your memory and hard drive.
SCAN FOR MALWARE AND VIRUSES
If your computer is infected with one or more viruses, this can cause your computer to run slow. If your computer does not have an antivirus program installed, you can run Trend Micro's free Housecall online utility to scan for viruses on your computer, as well as remove them. It is also recommended that you install an antivirus program for active protection against viruses.
STOP SOME STARTUP AND SERVICE PROGRAM
Computer slow because too many startup programs and services running.
To disable startup programs and services running such automated, go to the "System Configuration Utility" by type: msconfig in the Run menu, then the service tab and uncheck the startup do to applications that are not needed.
HARDWARE OVERHEAT
Hardware overheat whether it occurs on the hard disk, VGA card, processor or cpu in general could lead to decreased computer performance and ultimately the computer to hang, slow or even frequent restarts. To make sure that the air circulation inside the CPU running well so is the fan must be clean of dust and can rotate smoothly.
USE REGISTRY CLEANER TOOL
there are a lot of registry cleaner tool. one tool that can be used is CCleaner
That's a little ways to cope with a slow running computer. Please care of your computer properly, berishkan components, do not install any software, update the antivirus regularly, upgrade computer components with better components. That way your computer will work optimally and is not slow anymore
