My computer takes 20 minutes to start and also has a black screen
Hello world
I have a Dell Dimension 9200 and recently every time I start my computer or it reboot, it takes 20 minutes to get to the desktop and also has a black screen. This issue has occurred only recently and I don't know what is the cause and so advice would be welcome.
Other strange things include all my system restore points are missing and so I can't return the operating system to a previous date when it was working properly.
And when I did a test on the hard disk, one of the internal drives have had a "Fail" result - Code 7 back. I don't know if this was caused by a virus or is the result of a mechanical failure in the hard drive itself.
Thank you very much.
Gordon

Windows XP, Service Pack 3, all latest updates made. Scanned for viruses and malware, ran CCleaner. Defragmented HD reset Firefox, uninstalled firefox & reinstalled. The only thing I didn't do is throw my user profile. I exported my bookmarks to an HTML file, so I can restore. Which will work?
It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.
Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission get full and unrestricted, access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

I pay for Adobe CC photography. Lightroom opens instantly PS is just horrible. I use a Macbook Pro of the retina with i7. It's infuriating, is it bad for everyone else is? all my software is up to date and no problem with anything else. Yes, I have uninstalled and reinstalled PS
Now try the SHIFT key when you start Photoshop. This causes the open without third-party plug-ins, thus eliminating the as a cause if Photoshop opens quickly.
Plugins Adobe Photoshop troubleshooting
Another thing that Photoshop on start up is to see what fonts are available, and a corrupt police or hiding from police (with OSX) can mess things up. Especially look at clear the font cache as described in this link:

This gives a guide to most of the troubleshooting problems.

I cleaned up google and firefox and checked for malware
How can I speed it up?
First start by going to system-> startup disk preferences and select your startup disk. Sometimes after an update OS X startup disk becomes unselected for the firmware needs to address each possible boot device, including USB, SD card, DVD, network, etc... and wait before Timeout interface moves the next possible candidate.
After that, start in safe mode

Why dreamweaver takes five minutes to load when I open while other applications are not slow at all
CC of Dreamweaver takes an age to open and to close time. In fact, I sometimes force a fence in order to connect the PC off.
It could be a caching issue.
Try to create a new site definition called "blank Site".
Create a new empty document, then save it.
With the empty Site loaded in your files Panel, close and reopen DW.

Have you checked the CPU usage rate?

Note: Make sure that you back up the data on the computer before you continue.
The Chkdsk scan will attempt to identify and repair bad sectors on the hard drive. All the data on these areas could be lost in the process. The computer can also enter a no start condition. Proceed at your own discretion.
The antivirus will try to repair bad sectors on the hard drive damaged by viruses. Data on these areas could be lost in the process. Proceed at your own risk.
Alternatively, you can try to upgrade the computer to the latest version of Windows.
Do get back to us and let us know. We will be happy to help you.
