  1. FIX SLOW COMPUTER

  2. CAUSES AND SOLUTION TO FIX YOUR SLOW COMPUTER REBOOT If your computer has not been rebooted recently, make sure to reboot it before following any of the steps below.

  3. BACKGROUND PROGRAMS One of the most common reasons for a slow computer is programs running in the background. Remove or disable any TSRs and startup programs that automatically start each time the computer boots.

  4. DELETE TEMP FILES As a computer runs programs, temporary files are stored on the hard drive. Deleting these temp files cnhelp improve computer performance.

  5. FREE HARD DRIVE SPACE Verify that there is at least 200-500MB of free hard drive space. This available space allows the computer to have a room for the swap file to increase in size, as well as room for temporary files.

  6. BAD, CORRUPTED OR FRAGMENTED HARD DRIVE Run ScanDisk, chkdsk, or something equivalent to verify there is nothing physically wrong with the computer's hard drive. Run Defrag to help ensure that data is arranged in the best possible order. Use other software tools to test the hard drive for any errors by looking at the SMART of the drive.

  7. SCAN FOR MALWARE OR VIRUSES Today, spyware and other malware are a big cause of many computer problems, including a slow computer. Even if an antivirus scanner is installed on the computer, we recommend running a malware or virus scan on the computer. Use the free version of Virus Vanishto scan your computer.

  8. HARDWARE CONFLICTS Verify that the Device Manager has no conflicts. If any exists, resolve these issues, as they could be the cause of your problem.

  9. UPDATE WINDOWS Make sure you have all the latest Windows updates installed on the computer. If you are on the Internet when your computer is slow, make sure all browser plugins are up-to-date. You can also try disabling browser plug-ins to see if one of them is causing the slowness.

  10. UPDATE YOUR DRIVERS Make sure you have the latest drivers for your computer hardware, especially the latest video drivers. Having out-of-date drivers can cause an assortment of issues, including slow performance.

  11. MEMORY UPGRADE If you have had your computer for more than two years, you may need more memory. Today, we suggest computers have a minimum of 1GB of memory (RAM) for the 32-bit system and 2GB for a 64-bit system. By having enough memory for programs to run within memory, your computer will not need to swap information stored in memory to the swap file. If the hard drive light is constantly active, it can be an indication the computer is frequently swapping information between your memory and hard drive.

  12. HARD DRIVE UPGRADE One of the biggest bottlenecks of a computer is the hard disk drive. For anyone with a slow computer or just looking for the best component to upgrade, upgrading from a hard drive to a Solid State Drive (SSD) can significantly improve the performance of a computer.

  13. RUN REGISTRY CLEANER We normally do not recommend Registry cleaners. However, if you have followed all of the above steps and your computer is still slow, try running a Registry cleaner on the computer.

  14. COMPUTER OR PROCESSOR IS OVERHEATED Make sure your computer and the processor is not overheated. Excessive heat can cause a significant decrease in computer performance because most processors automatically reduce the speed of the processor to help compensate for heat-related issues.

  15. ERASE COMPUTER AND START OVER If none of the above solutions resolve your issues, another option is to either reinstall Windows or erase everything and then start over.

  16. HARDWARE ISSUES Finally, if your computer is still slow after trying all of the above recommendations, there may have a more serious hardware related issue, such as a failing component in the computer. Examples of failing hardware could include a failing or bad hard drive, CPU, RAM, motherboard, or another component.

  17. OLD COMPUTER If your computer is more than five years old, the age of the computer could be the cause of the slow performance. As more advanced software programs are released, they are optimized to run more efficiently on newer computers. Older computers are not able to run these new programs as well, which can cause them to perform more slowly.
