Slow computer!! ways to make it run faster




Install a solid state drive
Hard drives are the biggest cause of slow speeds and especially slow startup speeds on your PC.
installing a solid state drive, which have extremely fast read times.

More hard drive storage

Even if you make sure to regularly clean out all your temporarily files, if your hard drive becomes 85 per cent full, it’s going to affect your computer’s speed.install a bigger hard drive (1 or 2 tb).

More RAM

A clear indicator of not having enough RAM is if your computer slows down every time you try and process large files, or it freezes will carrying out several different actions at once.practical terms 4GB is more than enough for most people.

Run a disk defragment

Go to “My Computer”, right-click on the hard drive and select “Properties”. Under the “Tools” tab there should be an option to “Defragment Now”.

Run disk clean up

Open Disk Cleanup by clicking “Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Disk Cleanup”. 

Hoovering out the dust

dust is your computer’s enemy. It can impede airflow, which is vital to keeping your computer’s temperature down.

Uninstall unused programs


Some programs even run background processes when you load your computer, even though you are not using them.
To remove all these pointless programs, open the Control Panel’s Programs and Features page, and have a trawl through the list of installed software. Uninstall those that you do not need.
Automatically delete temporary files
To do this, open “My Computer”, and select your local drive (usually C:\). Select the “Windows” folder and then open the folder titled “Temp”.

Prevent unnecessary start ups

To do this, click “Start” and “Run”. In “Run”, type “msconfig” and then press enter. You should then see the “Startup” tab, with all the programs ticked the ones which will load upon your computer starting up.
