if you have too many progs running turn them off. if that doesnt work you need more memory. if you have less than 256mb of ram, then yes you need more memory. these days with vista coming out, you will need at the lowest 512mb, and thats not enough if you wanna play pc games like the sims2 and such. so yea if closing progs doesnt work do a disk cleanup. and if that doesnt work you need more memory. those are the cheapest ways to speed up your pc.

one thing you can do is delete your cookies and temp. files. if you don't know how to do that you go to tools on your header, select Internet options and a screen should pop up and you then will delete cookies and temp. Internet files, just a reminder when you delete temp. int. files you are erasing all saved forms such as passwords and forms you may have filled out. you will just have to retype them. if that doesn't work then you can uninstall programs that you don't use, this will free up more space because when the space gets low the computer will run slow, you may also like to scan it for any viruses. good luck. if you are using dial-up there is nothing I can say to help you, I know when I had dial-up before a page would load I could go have a cup of coffee and smoke a cigarette, well good luck if none of these work you can defragment your disk drive,

Try running your anti-virus and anti-spyware programs in safe mode, then use the disk clean up, and defrag the computer.
You didn't mention how big your hard drive is but you can delete or move some files to disk and free up space on your drive which should help

Do you generally empty your non everlasting cyber web information and weed out your cookies? which could fairly sluggish your laptop down. look below the strategies menu for cyber web techniques and then below surfing history. in case you push the delete button, a menu with various defined selections will arise. you may delete all or weed by way of them.

Clean it up by following theses steps:
HOW TO DO A THOROUGH CLEAN UP:
Before doing any of the maintenance steps outlined below make sure that your system is free from viruses and/or of any other undesirable Internet bugs, by running a thorough security scan of your machine.
Now, do the following as needed:
“I” (FOR WINDOWS XP-IE6)
While you are connected to the Internet do the following:
1. Click on tools ... Internet options. There you will see three buttons next to each other... “Delete Cookies” ... “Delete Files” and “Settings.” Also, below the settings button you will see another one “Clear history.”
2. Click on “settings” - go to “Edit” - Click on “select all” - Go to files, click delete and wait till all Internet trash files are gone.
3. Go back and click on “delete cookies” and wait till all cookies are gone
4. Go back and click on “Delete files,” put a check mark on the little white square shown on the small window that will open, click OK and wait for a little.
5. Go back and click on “Clear history”, click “yes” and you are done. Go to item “III” now.
ADDITIONAL INFO.: Here is how to clean website addresses from you IE6 browser bar: While you are connected to Internet, go to “Tools” … “Internet Options,” “Content” tab … “Auto Complete button” … click on “clear forms” and you are finished.
“II” (FOR WINDOWS XP-IE7):
Go to Start … Control Panel … Internet Options. Under “Browsing history” click “Delete” and then click “Delete all,” put a check mark in the little white square and then click “Yes” and you are done. Go to Item “III” now.
“III” (FOR BOTH WIN-IE6 AND WIN-IE7)
1. Do a check disk and a defrag, then restart your computer and see if the problem is resolved. It is assumed that you know how to do a check disc and disc difragmentation.
2. If the above steps don’t do the job, here is a little program that keeps your machine in shape and free from Windows micro-problems that lead to slowness and crashes:
Get on the web and go to http://www.tune-up.com/products/tuneup-utilities/site; download the free trial program, familiarize your self with it and use it to clean up your registry automatically along with a sort of other helpful and useful maintenance chores. It is an excellent little program and does wonders with PC maintenance tasks and I strongly recommend it! It works on the background on its own automatically.
3. After you are through with the above maintenance steps, go to Microsoft/Windows updates and download any and all available and/or applicable updates.
Hope this helps!
