Answer 4

sound to me like you need to optimize it.
there are a number of ways to do this, and a number of programs available to assist.

- first, how many icons are next to the clock (bottom right)
there should be as little as possible. right click on them and you can exit them
- anything in the startup folder ( start programs\start up )
- how much memory do you have? (start\settings\control panel\system - look for total memory installed. It should eb minimum 512 Mb

Answer 5

try scanning it for viruses or spyware. if it's not that then try going to task manager, processes and closing some of the huge programs, if that doesn't work then try maybe cleaning up your computer a bit. Those are the things that you can try to do, what kind of laptop do you have? how much memory are you using?
