My computer is running really slow what can i do to speed it up just the PC slow or just internet slow, not told. or both.
NO OS told n PC told (model vast)
slow not new but is now.
or bought used PC and it is low well vast are even new.
speed cost , just like i cars, you get what you paid for...


Working really slow NOW, not new.
all old PCs run slower with age , there are test to find cause.
ask a shop to fix it.
TOP CAUSED JUST PC.

  1. HDD FULL
  2. HDD BAD FAILS SMART TEST. (this corrupts all)
  3. MEMORY RAM FULL , REDUCE APPS THERE. or add more.
  4. NOT USING a FAST SSD BOOT DRIVE.
  5. old hdd even good runs slower, ask for tech reason, long.
  6. running nasty infected XP or VISTA? ouch.
  7. using too much memory actives virtual memory emulation to HDD and that is a horror max , a pure slug. see #3, it is called a swap file (geek speak)

https://www.techtarget.com/searchwindowsserver/definition/swap-file-swap-space-or-pagefile

use task manager to see if RAM is too full.
use explorer to see if hdd is bad
run smart test on HDD

My internet speed is really slow. What can i do to speed it up?

mcdevito75 here, Many things can slow up yours or any internet, Try this, from your desktop, click on RE-CYCLE bin and emty it, form your home page, right click tools (top of page) now cerefully, CAREFULLY read every word and delete cookies, and other items you really don"t need right now, check the box next to each item, READ EVERY WORD BEFORE DELETEING ANY THING. After this, from your home page, type in search, Super Anti Spy Ware, they have a free version that I run every day to get rid of potential viruses and internet ads that slow up your computer, READ EVERY WORD BEFORE YOU DO ANTHING. If your not comfortable with doing these things with your computer You may be new to doing these computer functions, then from Start, lower left side of screen, click start, the Help and support, they too can help with internet speed. READ EVERY WORD BEFORE DOING ANY THING WITH YOUR COMPUTER.

My PC Toshiba laptop is running very slow. It's

You need to give more details...
Following are the common methods to increase computer running speed:
- Delete Windows temp files
- Run disk cleanup and defragmenter, this can help you clean junk files, and speed up opening programs and files. If possible, use a third-party programs rather than the built-in system tools, they take really a long time...
- Clean WIndows registry and run defragmenter. This can reduce registry errors and reduce its size, so as to speed up application response. Here is a free registry defrag tool which I feel quite easy to use.

Slow pc

Mun MSCONFIG and shut off everything you don't really need to run in the background. Reboot and do a full virus scan and a full malware / spyware scan. Next, run a greigtry cleaner program. All of these will work together to speed you up but the registry cleaner will really make the difference. It all but tripled the speed of my laptop.
