Slow computer, with a lot of not Respondings
All of a sudden I feel some very slow computer operation, randomly, but occurring essentially (like big breaks when you type this note while I couldn't type - several times). This is just an example - here's more:
-take several seconds (sometimes 10-15 seconds) to appear in the email preview pane
-take 10-15 seconds for a PDF file is displayed after double-clicking
-sometimes for 10 to 15 seconds to close a window
-sometimes 10 to 15 seconds when you click homepage, folders, display, count tabs on Windows Live Mail
-also 10 to 15 seconds discovers a photo after double clicking on a jpeg image file
-delays when you type in the search for box
-sometimes very slow loading of programs (and most of the cases above have to do with something loading)
-(don't know for the sake of typing (i.e. of the breaks in the middle of a line)
-Many do not respond (IE 10.0, Live Mail, Windows Explorer, Adobe Reader, almost everywhere)
I got these things in the past, but only very rarely (not more than a few times a day, if that), but now they are chronic (but random) - like constantly for a few minutes and then they clear up for a few minutes. For these last days, they have been more frequent in the late afternoon or early evening, when I'm more active on the computer.
In fact, they are so bad that occasionally they make my computer almost unusable.
I ran Malewarebytes and a Microsoft Security Essentials - no virus scan. I have delete just maybe 20,000 electronic messages in the Live Mail folder deleted, but that did not help. I have just some time he put a floor fan extra on the computer where there is a kind of heat problem (the House temperature is in the high 70 years), but tht didn't help either (at least so far).
I have published the Task Manager and have been watching process CPU usage (on my 2nd screen). Most of the time is to be spent in the system idle process - and you know how he flashes every second or so (when he's done things), sometimes when things were locked u (frozen, whatever), the display of the process seems to have stopped for several seconds - as she did not answer either.
Can you offer any help or advice. As I said, sometimes the system is pretty unusable. And randomly. I got 3 messages "(Microsoft.com ne répond ne pas de) when typing the 1st paragraph of this note, but have not had any problems since."
Can it be a heat problem, graphics problem or something like that - because it seems to stretch across everything I do.

Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.
Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.
This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:
This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded: run DriverView - define the VIEW
for the drivers Microsoft hide - updated those without drain in their names. (Also updated
the BIOS and chipset drivers.)-Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.htmlFor drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
each installation.Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
necessary.Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
manually by model.Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

I have itunes 12.4. When I try to add a new song to icloud music library I see the following message: "Genius results cannot be updated because the iTunes store does not recognize your iTunes library." He then ordered me to turn off Genius, and then turn it back on. There is no option. Othe impossible of access devices correspond to these songs via itunes. Any help would be appreciated.
Hello Subocz E M.
Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. I see that you had problems adding pieces and turn off Genius. I know how it is important to be able to add music to iTunes. I'm happy to help you.
Since you are being invited to turn off Genius, you can add music, please use the following information to resolve these two issues:
Turn on or off the Genius
If iCloud music library is enabled, you cannot disable Genius.
Choose file > library > Genius (toggle Genius).
Turning off the Genius Genius Genius Shuffle shuts and and the Genius Mix.

Slow computer, Rainbow spinning, several sound tracks in the background, repeated force constant close. I found the problem
in the toolbar top inside windows... he had a hundred sites and windows listed, I brought all forward and deleted the individually, all the
the problems have disappeared and my broadband is zipping the long... no balls spinning now. Was this something that came with the recent update,
they are deleted is no longer at the stop down? I am 80 years Thos downloaded El captain and responsible for all the updates and never had a problem with it. Just if I let you know
they are called 'Pop-UNDER' windows... usually called by clicking anywhere on a Web page (javascript 'giant' invisible button on the entire page)
These can be put in check by:
- do not visit unscrupulous Web sites (However, some OK sites may have been pirated unbeknownst to the owner)
- browser add-on that "kills" the windows
A faster way for all persistent windows your way to "kill".
- Exit the browser
- Launch of the browser with the SHIFT key held - behaviors vary a little, but it is intended for these sorts of things

Very slow computer from El Capitan 10.11.3
I hope that someone can help you. My computer is very slow and unstable since the El Capitan 10.11.3 patch. I am on a MacBook Pro 15 "-end 2011. The computer is particularly slow in Safari, but was slower than normal as well. I backed up my files in Time Machine to an external drive before any troubleshooting, so I'm really happy about it. The person had me clear everything and go into recovery mode and reinstall the OS. After that I had problems with closing down and restart so I reinstalled again and just have not stopped since then. I don't him have NOT YET migrated all my files back and will not until I know that the system is stable. My laptop is functional but still just very slow. Can someone please help? I'm desperate! Thank you so much in advance!

Slow computer after reinstalling Windows
Original title: where can I download XP with SP3 and make an installable CD
I have Xp home basic CD. As the partition on which the operating system has been installed is full I formatted the HD and reinstalled XP home basic, updated to SP3 as before, but now the system is slow. I did reinstalling, the second time, but the problem persists. I used to reinstall it form the CD, where can I get a CD of XP home SP3 with for installation. OR is the site from where I can download and burn a CD installable.
The installation of XP Home Sp3 then installation will produce exactly the same results in terms of performance as the installation of a CD with Sp3 integrated on it. You need to study more directly what makes the system seems slow. Because of differences in the product ID, it is possible that the license key that you currently have will not work on a built-in drive.
You can not legitimately download an integrated cd image but if you have some versions of the software, you can create your own CD burning by slipstreaming service pack on the copied on your hard drive XP CD files, and then creating a new CD bootable with the result.
A search for "slipstream sp3 xp home" will give you a lot of help.
Speed for new construction problems are almost always due to hardware specs, the easier to solve in memory.
