P500 slow at startup

It's been a year I am using Lenovo p500. It works fine, but recently, the start was very slow. Sometimes it takes about 3-4 minutes. Is it possible to improvise the performance?

"Bios Update" help the problem?

Try this "Dism / online/cleanup-image /restorehealth. Note that there is a space before each command.

  • Desktop HP Envy h8-1485ea: hp envy h8-1485ea slow at startup

    I have had this PC for a few years now and even though I keep the start up programs at least the boot time is now about 5 minutes.

    I think that this pc has a 16 GB drivewhich SSD I thought caching was supposed to prevent from starting slow times.

    The PC is a desktop 64-bit HP Envy h8-1485ea system.

    Is it possible that when I upgraded from Windows 8 to 10 of Windows operating system has been installed on the main 3 TB hard drive? If that were the case, how should I move to the SSD drive?

    Or should I put the SSD drive and if so, what specifications?

    The SSD 16 GB drive aims to speed up access memory, is not to speed up the startup time.

    The upgrade to Windows 10 made for the operating system on the hard drive of 3 TB. Upgrade Windows 10 will not install to one as small as 16 GB of SSD.

    You can install a SATA 160 GB SSD and a greater capacity and configure it as a startup disk.

    Use the hard drive 3 TB of storage.

    It is recommended that clone you the current startup for the SATA SSD drive before you install it in the desktop PC.

  • Norton Antivirus slows down startup time in Windows Vista

    Hello

    need help please, I am led to madness by starting slow time of my laptop.
    I he had only a few weeks and don't use it for anything beyond to produce documents word etc.

    It has been gradually slower on boot and I suspect it has something to do with the protection of Norton antivirus on it software and updates for norton I downloaded (thinking that it was the right thing to do).

    Looking at the log for problems and solutions on the computer, the date on which he began really to slow coincides with downloading an update to norton, which I could not uninstall to check if that's really the problem.

    In addition, I tried to do a system restore, my laptop could not complete.
    I'm stuck on the screen of the BACK for 10 minutes with the message:
    PXE - E32 TFTP open timeout

    I have no idea what it means, but the newspaper issues and Solutions said something about a blocking of the system?

    I looked on the web for other virus protection software and they all seem to have a problem or slow computers and another down to the start.

    Did someone knows a solution or should I just make a cup of tea when I turn on my computer and lace with vodka until it is fully charged to the top!

    I am a novice when it comes to using computers so would like to receive technical advice.

    Thank you

    Hi guys

    I would like to add a few words about my experience using the Symantec Norton Antivirus software.
    I used this software long 3 years. It was great because it supports one of the best options for filtering viruses, BUT it really slow downs the operating system.
    I didn t use on preinstalled Vista laptop but on Win XP and I must say that the laptop boot process was stopped about 30 sec - 1 min until the entire parts of Norton Antivirus software has started, it is very annoying

    However, I went to AntiVir. It is described by marina4000 software and I really happy because the startup performance of m.

    So finally, I also recommend delete this Symantec Norton Antivirus software and switch to other free AntiVir software ;)

    Good bye

    Everyone is different and has different needs and different desires.
    There are * no. * programs that everyone should run. See below for
    Tips on what you should maybe stop start automatically,
    But first of all to consider the possibility that your problem with what he is
    slowly maybe nothing to do with what starts automatically.
     
    Perhaps the most common performance issue of today is malware
    infection and the first thing you should do is be sure that you are not
    infected. So, what anti-virus and anti-spyware programs run, and
    If they are updated?
     
    Once you talked about this question and that is rid of all
    Malware or get assured that you are not infected, you can address
    the issue of automatic startup programs:
     
    First of all, note that you should be in * all * programs that
    starts automatically, not only those who enter in the system tray.
    Not all the programs auto-start manifesting by an icon in the
    Status bar.
     
    On each program, you don't want to automatically start, check its
    Options to see if he has the choice of not start (make sure you)
    Indeed choose not to run, not just a "don't show icon.
    Optional). Many can easily and better be arrested like that. If that is not
    work, run MSCONFIG from the start. Run the line, and then click the Startup tab.
    Uncheck the programs that you do not want to automatically start.
     
    However, if I were you, I wouldn't do it just for the application of
    the minimum number of running programs. Despite what many people say
    you, you should be concerned, not with the way * a lot * of these programs
    you run, but * that *. Some of them can degrade performance severely, but
    others have no effect on performance.
     
    Don't stop all programs to run willy-nilly. What you need to do
    is to determine what each program is, what its value is up to you which
    the performance cost is its running all the time. You can try
    Internet search and ask questions about the details here.
     
    Once you have this information, you can make a smart informed
    decision on what you want to keep and what you want to get rid of.

  • Firefox slow at startup

    Hello all, I need help with a problem, I have recently noticed when opening firefox.
    Whenever I try to open it without any previous open tab, it takes a long time to start (about 10 seconds). Never had this problem before.
    After startup everything works fine and even opening new tabs/windows is done instantly, the problem is known only when firefox is closed and should start.

    I tried to disable my antivirus and the problem persists.
    I tried to disable hardware acceleration and the problem persists.
    I tried from Pentecost firefox a clean, new profile and the problem persists.
    I tried to reinstall firefox and the problem persists.
    I tried to start firefox in safe mode and seems to work fine, but when I try to run normally while disabling all plug-ins and extensions (default theme) the problem arises again.

    No idea what else I could try to fix this annoying?

    Try to start the computer in Mode safe mode with network support Windows (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if that helps.

    In the Firefox Safe mode, these changes are effective:

    • all extensions are disabled (subject: addons)
    • Default theme is used (no persona)
    • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored (chrome folder)
    • default toolbars is used (file: localstore - safe.rdf)
    • JIT JavaScript compilers are disabled (prefs: javascript.options. * jit)
      http://KB.mozillazine.org/about:config
    • hardware acceleration is turned off (Options > Advanced Options > general)
    • plugins are not affected
    • preferences are not affected
  • XP slow at startup. Hour later WARNING ' Windows virtual memory Minimum too low. "

    Slow start of XP home on a Dell Dimension 8200 and seems better functioning after the virtual memory warning appears in an hour later.

  • Windows 7 running slow at startup to the top

    I had problems with Win 7 Starter & slugglishly running in general in recent weeks. I did a clean installation a few months ago & everything was OK but now I notice a lag in just about everything, even small things such as opening a new tab in IE seem to cause a delay that did not previously exist.

    IM compares to my machine Win7 I use at work that runs a lot faster (C2D 2.8 ghz, 2 GB ram) which is in contrast to my home pc which is a quad core with 2 GB & a lot less open applications (I'm at work now with MANY open apps & still run faster than my PC with no apps open all the House!)

    Time opening IE8 reboot & loading the homepage is apprx 3.5 minutes (slower even than my old Vista laptop). Ive done all the cleaning I can use C Cleaner, emptied the trash, removed rarely used applications etc.. Everything which is still connected is my printer, the KB & mouse, also ran MSConfig & make all the necessary changes so that he can run faster, but none of this has made ALL the difference - outside to do a fresh install of W7 I don't know what I can do.

    Also tried starting in Firefox or Chrome instead of IE8 but its still just as slow (is also used with compensation history of IE8, cookies, etc.). Even things like Win explore & Control Panel are slow at any time, as is the search engine that is supposed to be indexed but still chuggs along for more than a few seconds (once again my work PC is very fast in this regard with a lot more files potentially be examined). Office 2010 also takes about 20-30 seconds to open Word or Excel, once again my work PC starts immediately...

    Another aspect of stress that has never caused problems in the past, my main drive (160 GB) is partitioned into 2 sections (50 / 50 split apprx)-many spare parts on the 'C' drive and even again on the data section. I also have a secondary internal HDD 320 for data only, both drives are 7200 RPM - is there something here that is causing a problem with Win7 that never affected XP?

    HARD drives are all defragged using Diskeeper in game & forget mode - all showing healthy

    Can someone suggest a remedy for my sick PC?

    =================================

    Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

    Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
    launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
    reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

    Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leaving Standard, Web, and
    Operation of the network.

    Prevx - Home - free

    Windows Firewall

    Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

    Protected IE - mode

    IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

    I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
    (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
    right of IE)

    Two versions of Avast are available 5.x and 4.8 x

    Avast - home - free - 5.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
    Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
    Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
    Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
    disabled - click OK
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

    Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
    and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
    Finish those you don't use).
    http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

    Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
    http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

    Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

    Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
    programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
    or use Google to see how to remove.
    http://www.prevx.com/   <-->

    PCmag - Prevx - Editor's choice
    http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

    Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
    would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
    (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
    never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.
