My Computer runs real real slow!! why??
At this point it sounds like hardware. Switch the memory modules around. Remove all except 1, then work from there. Try that vacuum idea also. That seemed to work last time. If the problem is software its going to be take another step to fix.
When the computer boots hit F8. this will let you boot into “safe mode”. From here it loads just the basic drivers so that you can trouble shoot the computer. A lot of times the computer loads duplicate drivers and cause the computer to slow down. Here is how to remove the duplicate drivers.
Boot into saf mode and goto the control panel:
START > settings > control panel
Then load open the device manager:
“System” icon > “Hardware” tab > “Device manager” button
Here are all drivers that your computer loads. The items with a “+” symbol contain the drivers. Simply open each “+” and deleting all duplicate entries.
Delete all items under:
Disk Drives
DVD/CD-ROM
Floppy disk controllers
IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers
Floppy disk
NETWORK Adapters
Once you have done this with all the devices, reboot the computer. The computer will automatically reload the drivers that it needs to make the hardware run.
