How To Fix A Slow PC Startup

Is your computer slow to start up? Have you have seen your friend’s old computer running much faster than your new Pentium IV computer? If your computer has a Pentium IV processor and a well maintained Windows XP, then it will run very fast even with RAM as low as 128MB and a small CPU. If you feel that your computer is running slower than usual, then you can fix it with the help of software before going into the hardware.

Software may be at fault and not working properly for your slow working computer. There are many things going on side by side which should not have been working with 1s and 0s that you may not even be aware of.

Some things that may slow your computer down:

1. Low space in the hard disc or hard drive or an older hide drive.

Normally, the best way to find out what the problem is with your computer and how to make it work faster is to eliminate the little problems first. Perform some quick maintenance and then see what happens to it.

1. Remove the files that you no longer need such as temporary files in the computer, and remove the files from the recycle bin using system tools in “accessories” from the start menu.

2. Run a scan program for the hard disc.

3. Defragment the hard disc so that any infected areas of the fragmented hard disc are removed.

4. Scan the computer with a virus scan program.

5. Download a registry error removal program from the internet.

6. Install it on the computer and run it to fix any registry problems.

The whole process takes about 20 minutes to complete. Restart the computer after doing everything. If this doesn’t solve the problem, then try to find out what other problems exist on your computer.

Have a look at the antivirus program on your computer or do you even have one? If it is old or incompatible with your computer, then this could be the cause of your slow computer. If you don’t have antivirus software installed on your computer, get it immediately. Run your antivirus software periodically to make sure there is no malware in the computer.

If your problem still continues, then the hard disc may be at fault. Is there any type of sound produced by the computer? One symptom of an old hard disc is the clicking sound made either frequently or infrequently.  You can scan the hard disc by a scanner to check the problem. You may also need to add additional RAM memory. Have a look at the system tools and system information to know the current RAM memory status of the computer. A computer in which Windows XP is installed should run at a minimum 256 MB of RAM.
