My new Satellite C50D-138 runs really slow
Just above for laptop and really disappointed that it is so slow. I did not put new software on it but just loading internet is a real drag. I need only to basic internet surfing and create word documents so do not have a high performance computer, but it takes all 30 sec - 1 min to load a Web page. Is this normal?
See the full specifications below. Thank you very much.LAPTOP TOSHIBA SATELLITE C50D-138, AMD E1-2100, 2 GB, 500 GB, WINDOWS 8.1, 15.6 "
Toshiba C50D-138 is ideal for computer daily or basic use, with E1-1200 AMD Dual Core processor and 2 GB of memory.The 500 GB hard drive also lets that you space to save all your pictures, music and files.
Enjoy your favorite movies on your built-in DVD player and talk via Skype through the webcam and built-in microphone.
Bluetooth 4.0 is installed so as to have the option of USB 2.0 and USB 3.0 to transfer data.
The black chassis has a textured finish that allows to eliminate the traces of finger and gives a classic look.
A lot of people on this forum topic reports similar. You must understand that for laptop with factory settings is not optimized, and each of us must make own configuration of operating system.
For example, new notebook will do the automatic updates of Windows. With other words when Windows detects new updates it will download and installed in the background and that you know something like this running in the background. This will slow down the activity internet and laptop performance quickly.I recommend to install all Windows updates and change the settings in Control Panel > windows update > change settings. Use the option check the updates but let me choose... in the future you will be informed of the updates, but you can install them when you don't need machine for your work.
Test it please

Hello johnwheldon,
You have all other administrator accounts you log on? If you want to restore your system back to factory settings, you will need to start in your boot options. In general, each brand has different ways of access to this. I suggest you look at your owner's manual or by visiting the manufacturer's website.
I hope this helps.

InDesign Cs6 running really slow!
I edit, create and produce manuals for a company that gave me training on Indesign! I use Indesing Cs6 Manual of already produced edition and slowly started to create my own. The company has an external company, who had started working on a new project until I'm relevant. They use Indesign CC, the guy also creates books in book form. He sends me the files and a file IDML which allows me to convert what he sent in the version of Indesign (CS6) that I use. Everything is perfect!
As I begin to edit these newly produced manuals I have problems with the program... It turns very slowly especially when typing or importing images.
I move the files from the server to the external company has access too.
Put it on the server I work for.
Open my Office Cs6 and create a book
I then save the book in the same folder on the server, I moved the files too
I open all IDML files individually and then save it in the same folder as an Indesign Cs6 file.
I then open the book and add the necessary files in the book.
Can I save.
They are the steps I take before I start editing the files, with open book, I tend to change the sections individually, unless I'm updating of the cross - references.
I'm not sure if there is something I am doing wrong or if there is a certain set/format should I change. I'm not very computer Tech companys guy seems to think that this is an error with the program rather than my computer as he checked and inserted also more memory.
HELP PLEASE!
Do a save pennies on each of the files to erase old data from change. If there is between documents cross-reference ID open constantly files and close them while you work unless you keep all the files in the book open again.

Satellite Pro 2100 is really really slow running
I have a satellite pro 2100 I killed a friend.
He said his brother gave him and that he had no idea what was wrong because he didn't have a chance to watch it.I put windows xp pro top and used the bottom of the laptop pro license key.
but the laptop is really really slow.
It may take up to 5 minutes for nothing I click to open up.the strange thing is the laptop works fine in safe mode, can open things like I should.
but in normal windows mode, it slows down to a crawl and even crashes.
I have trie all to my knowledge.
I even uninstalled and turn off the graphics drive that I thought that he maybe, but he always does.I tried multiple copies different from xp pro and even tried a copy of vista, but still the same.
He had 2 different lots of tried in ram, 2 sticks was new aswel. I tried 3 different hard drives and still the same.
My thoughts are that the integrated graphics card is exhausted.
can anyone else confirm this? Certainly this isn't a software issue because I tried a few different copies of xp and vista. IM about to bin it now.
> anyone can confirm this?
Don t think someone could confirm everything that is related to a malfunction of the equipment.
Here in the forum, we can talk about problems and makers of disorders, but no one will be able to say with certainty what's going wrong here.First laptop computer is an oldie.
The Mobile Intel Pentium 4 CPU, isn t a up to date CPU and in my opinion, that don't expect too much performance.I put t know how this camera supports memory but everything below 1 GB of Ram would be good enough to the smooth running of the laptop.
However, given that the unit works much faster saving mode, I guess there must be a hardware related problem.

its really slow gains. I want to run faster and be more afficent
its really slow connection... It's just not as fast on foot beds like he used to be.
Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point. Run Disk Defragmenter.
Using the system restore option is most appropriate when your system is slow and you need to increase the free disk space on your C partition. If you have errors that could be solved by using the system restore to your system settings back to before the error occurred initially do not use this option.
If more than one person uses the computer and they have their own user log you need to run Disk Cleanup in each user profile that you want to delete all the unwanted files.
A better program of disk cleanup is cCleaner but note that cCleaner will not manage system restore points. Remove the old restore points can be important if you have little free disk space. cCleaner comes with a registry tool. Do not use this tool as any registry cleaner could lead to the creation of very difficult to resolve system errors.

Hello!
I loved using my MacBook Pro. It's REALLY slow. I read all the posts on how to solve the problem and we have tried most of them. Still slow. Nothing wrong with the battery, speakers, etc. Simply slow to move, slow to open apps, beachball for days, takes forever to edit video and audio. I ran EtreCheck as suggested by another user, and here's the summary. Any help would be MUCH appreciated!
Thank you!

I have no idea what you have tried, but your HARD drive is suspect. Start 4 option on the partition recovery and in the menu select disk utility. Run disk utility > first aid > repair. If the HARD disk is not repairable the disc must be replaced.
Ciao.

My book for mac pro 13 inch retina is really slow. A few weeks before it was really fast and now it's really slow as I have to turn my wifi on and off.
Run this test and post the results here.

Since I got this Satellite L500 for 3 weeks it worked really slow.
Anyone know what I can do to speed it up, back to normal. Thanks leslie
Hi leslie113,
It is really difficult to talk about such things, because nobody knows how you have installed things and a lot of software can slow performance because they always running in the background.
The easiest way is if you defragment the HARD drive at any time and uninstall all of the software that you don't need more.
* Main * point is to use the * forum research *. You will find a large number of threads how to improve performance of Windows!
