Re: Very slow laptop

Hello, this has probably been posted CIHI thousands of times, but can t find a thread that connects directly to my problem.

I have a Toshiba basic laptop that is only 5 months old, but it's really slow. When I turn the laptop on, it takes about 15 minutes to connect to the internet, I know that it s not the Internet that's the problem as friends brought their computer round one bound to the wireless without any problem.

I always get the Toshiba note book recording ceased work reminder and I was wondering if this has nothing to do with it.

I don't use the computer for surfing the internet and took some vacation photos stored on there with a little music, so t may be that I don't have any space.

Any help would be appreciated,

See you soon
Matt

Hi Matt

What model do you have?
Are you using the original pre-installed OS?

Did you install additional software that can slow down your laptop?

    What version of Windows?

    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. Delete System Restore points may be important if you have little free disk space. The ability to delete them is one of the tools options. You can selectively remove those created in less important moments.

    cCleaner also 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.

  • Very slow laptop

    Hi, I'm having a lot of problems with my laptop HP G61 S.N. [personal information deleted]. Product; VY438EA #ABU. It is running Windows 7 and has an Intel Celeron processor.

    He started running very slowly and took ages to bring up the pages as web pages and software. I tried to do a full scan using Kaspersky Internet Sec 2015 but there was no problems. The hard drive was only 50% fullso, it was not if. I tried the checkdisk function and all the features of tests on the machine. This allowed me to do the memory test that happened, but would not let me do the hard drive test. He was going to start but then after a few seconds she stop and return to the previous screen. I then did a factory reset, which is something I do here and there to empty the garbage, but this time, it took nearly five hours to complete the work. He has never been longer than before. Now when I turn it on it takes about thirty minutes to get up and running and is so slow to an absolute age to do anything.

    Any ideas will be appreciated, regards, dannyd47.

    Hi, just to let you know I have installed a new hard drive and reinstalled everything and it's all working perfectly so that was the problem. I thank very you much for your help, it was very appreciated. Best regards, Danny

  • very slow laptop, formatted several times, always slow

    My laptop used to work perfectly and quickly. However, lately it has been running terribly slow. I have reset the software to factory several times - still slow. I received a new standard ISO MS, (X 17-58997), cut on a dvd, reloaded the o/s.

    It takes several days to load the o/s. Also, it took several attempts for a reason any. I had to delete all partitions, including the HP ones (sigh) stock, to get it in French - last night. However, it is still being slow extremmmmely. I removed the ram and tried different sticks - same thing. This may not be a software problem - can it? It must be hardware.

  • Cannot modify startup programs - very slow laptop computer at startup.

    Hi my laptop is running slow at startup, so I thought I would "change the startup programs" via the control panel.

    I get the message 'Windows Defender is disabled' then when I try to turn it on it freezes.

    I have Microsoft Security Essentials.

    This question was asked several times but no answers that I can see.

    Thank you

    MSE disables Defender by default, MSE has its own integrated version of Defender.

    You can try this from Microsoft:

    http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb963902.aspx

    This utility, which has a knowledge of auto-starting locations of any startup monitor, shows you what programs configured to run at system startup or login and that the entries in the order of processing windows. These programs include those in your startup folder, Run, RunOnce, and other registry keys. You can configure Autoruns to show other locations, including Explorer shell, toolbar extensions, helper objects to the browser, Winlogon notifications, auto and many start-up services even more. Autoruns goes way beyond the MSConfig utility bundled with Windows Me and XP.

    Please send me the driver SATA for Windows XP Home edition, or please give me the solution.

    Thank you

    Hello

    May I ask how you installed Win XP?
    Did you change the SATA mode on compatible in the BIOS settings?
    If yes then this problem is related to the missing SATA drivers!

    You can find the SATA drivers in the Intel Storage Manager which is placed on the page of European disk from Toshiba!

    Launch the .exe with the settings file a p

    For example (the files will be unpacked in the storagemanager folder):

    Hi Gianni,

    I use Nero to burn DVDs, and one of the configurable options is the task of "priority". If I set it to 'high' then my phone behaves as you described, that is very slowly. Check if you have you encode/burn too high task priority.

    Hello

    1 have had any changes made to your computer before this problem?

    2. what version of Windows are you using?

    I suggest you to follow the methods below and check if it helps.

    Method 1: SFC scan run on the computer to ensure that the system files are intact:

    How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

    Method 2:

    a. go to the Media Player.

    b. in the menu-> file-> manage libraries-> select each library (music, video, photos, TV recorded (if you have)

    c. check the paths that he manages and make sure it is not too near the root of the C: drive.  For example, it should be something like c:\users\Jim\Music and c:\users\Public\Music BUT NOT c:\users because they will cause the whole directory to re tree - index over and over (when you surf the web, or change files in your profile).

  • When my XP laptop uses the internet connection Wi - Fi on Linksys, it's very slow

    I have a Linksys Wireless G.  I had windows Vista on my desktop, I went to windows XP. Before the switch, I got my Linksys with a single blue cable of the Linksys modem on my desk, with connecting to a port that resembles a big port connection telephone excellent internet connection.  Now with windows XP I have to use two cables to have internet connection, one for the port I have described and a blue cable to the USB port.  With this configuration, when my laptop is used for the Linksys Wireless, the internet on my desktop becomes very slow, does not arrive before the move to windows xp.  What should I do to return to the blue cable connection on my desktop?

    You shouldn't have a USB connection.  In fact, most of the Linksys wireless-G routers I know have even a USB connection.  Then the other end of the "blue cable to the USB port" connected to?  If it's your Linksys router, what is the make and model of this device (look at the label on the bottom and includes any version number).

    And why connect this USB cable in the first place?

  • DVD burner in the new laptop VERY SLOW - PLDS DVD +-RW OF THE - 8A5HH

    I just got a new laptop from Best Buy - Dell Inspiron 3521. There a PLDS DVD +-RW OF THE - 8A5HH drive built in. I tried to burn a data CD, but it failed several times.

    I tried these in the file Explorer and CyberMedia Power2Go Burns, also at the Maximum speed or 24 X. It was using both Philips 52 X speed CDR burning failed at the end, when the burner is trying to close the disc. He couldn't complete a burn speed X 10 (very slow) to Power2Go. File Explorer strangled between 7 X and 10 x to be able to burn and did not show a dialog box saying if the burn is complete or not. He left me guessing.

    It was after a call to Dell technical support and a trip on the Microsoft Support Site to use their CD - RW test online. He said he updated something, but I don't know what.

    I must say it's a disappointment. I think I should have bought a laptop without a burner inside and bought an external burner. At least that way I had have the choice of what I got. This burner is slooowly.

    Anyone have any idea if this can be fixed, or is it just a limitation of the burner is in this laptop? If it is material, well I guess you get what you pay for.

    Dell phone support fixed it. Went to the Microsoft Support website and ran a convenience store of material for DVD players, who suggested the update of the firmware of the player. He did that, and then we went back and burned a disc in the file Explorer and it worked, but only to 10 X I opened Power2Go and burned a disc at 24 X, and it burned successfully. I didn't actually measure the speed (Power2Go shows you that), but it worked well and quickly. I think that the problem was an outdated firmware for the DVD/CD burner. Flashing to the latest firmware fixed the problem.

    I want, I knew that this troubleshooting tool on the Microsoft support site, but now I can not find.
