Answer 3

Two or three things could do this.

1. Older computer.

2. Virus and spyware

3. Very small virtual memory caused by having too small a swap file.

4. Older drivers loaded for some things.

5. Foreground/background settings on your windows. The wrong setting makes it difficult or impossible for Windows to be very efficient.

Answer 4

click on start > run and type in prefetch over there.
a new window will open, it will have many files. delete all of them.

again click on start > run, type in MSCONFIG. u will see a window called system configuraiton utility. on this window, on top right, click on startup tab. uncheck everthing from there and computer would be fast. its a risky thing so u are doing it on ur own risk .. i wish i could help more but its a complex process which couldnt be explained to a novice via text.

Verizon, Cox, AT & T once you're internet is sluggish you will desire to verify each and each of the connecting wires on the lower back of the pc.. if it persists then call your service desire i helped

Answer 6

the monitor (screen) has nothing to do with computer speed. Try running an anti-spyware scan and a virus scan

Answer 7

Clean up your PC. Go to IE=>Tools=>Internet Options. Remove all of the cookies, history, etc. Then try and defragment your hard drive. (Accessories=>System Tools=> Defragment Hard Drive...It'll probably run all night so do it before you go to sleep.)

Good Luck

Answer 8

close all programs. click start, run, type prefetch, delete all files from folder. exit, go again to start, run, type %temp% also delete all the files in the folder. this works for my computer. also if your computer starts up slow then go to start, run, type in msconfig then go to start up and disable every thing. your done this will make your computer faster.

Answer 9

CCleaner is basically a dedicated cleaner which cleans the unwanted files in your computer...for eg. when you download or open any file or site, at many places it is registered in your computer that is not needed by the computer to work.....its a wonderful software that frees unwanted space...
Norton is basically a dedicated anti-virus.....
I sugess to still install CCleaner

You can find a free download of ccleaner here http://bit.ly/1sJimp9

Answer 10

wtf... your monitor has nothing to do with your computers speed.
i recommend you defrag run anti-spy delete unnecessary stuff on your computer that you don't need etc etc.... oh yeah and if you can add a good ram card with as many gigabytes as it can hold on your computer it will make it run so smoothly again.
