most of the time when my friends computer is running slow its because he has too many start up programs. go to Start > Run > type 'msconfig' and go to the 'startup' tab and clean up some of the stuff you don't need when windows starts up. 'Services' is anouther tab to clean stuff up in but if you don't know what your doing you can really mess some things up.
As for viruses 'Avast Antivirus' and 'Spybot Search and Destroy'. |
