Do you have a PC or Laptop that just seems to respond to your commands at a very slow rate? Well, do not be alarmed as there are quite a number of possible causes for this problem. Attempt the following fixes from top to bottom:
- Virus Infestation.
- Hard Drive Storage space is full or almost full.
- Not enough memory/RAM capacity to process all the commands at once.
- Low Voltage or current passing into your computer.
Some viruses cause your computer to slow down, so do not forget to do Anti-virus scanning and removal. It is recommended to run anti-virus programs in safe mode or at boot level as viruses are not active then hence easy to disinfect and clean off.
Do some housekeeping by way of doing the Disk Cleanup to remove temporary files, Registry Cleanup to clear off dead registry entries, Disk Defragmentation to defragment files on your hard drive, Uninstall software/programs not essential or used regularly, etc..
Check your RAM/memory capacity; if it’s too little, then it’s advisable to upgrade your RAM to 512MB or 1GB or more, the higher the RAM, the faster your computer responds due to sufficient memory capacity.
If the above 3 checks has been performed but still no improvement, then check the voltage or current received by your computer. If you are not that tech savvy, then use in place of your current power adapter another one from a good computer or purchased new from a retail outlet and try it on.
With that I trust that you should have fixed the slowness of your computer or laptop by now.
