    Hi @oopsys,

    Thank you for visiting the HP Forums!

    I will do my best to help you. I read your thread on your HP Pavilion g6-2235tx laptop and have slow speeds. Thank you for all the information on what is happening and what you've done so far. Something is slowing down the laptop.

    Have you installed some antivirus or firewall? If you disable what are your speeds better?

    Here is a document on improving your system.

    If these things do not help, I would consider a refresh of Windows 8.  Do not forget to save music films and documents in the case where.

    The reset will install the original driver and sometimes to solve the problem of the slow speeds or slow to develop.

    I have a Presario SR5450F.  Recently, it is very slow to start.  It hangs on the screen Compaq (Installer, boot, System Recovery, Diagnostics Menu).  He hangs up on this screen for at least 10 minutes, which is unacceptable.  He just started this.  Can someone help me please?  Thank you.

    Thank you.  Problem solved.  I unplugged my USB devices and the freezing of the Compaq screen went away.  Now, it starts fine.  I've isolated the USB device that was causing the problem... it's the connection of my digital camera.

    Thanks again.

  • Satellite Pro L20 very slow to start

    My computer is old enough to start once connected for the first time. I have norton auto-start and think this may be it slows down, but how do I know what other programs start automatically.

    I noticed that there are a lot of icons in my taskbar. Any ideas if its something to do with that or somethine else entirely?

    Hi Julie,.

    There are two possible locations for the tasks and processes to be configured for a start. The first (and most obvious) is in the folder 'Start-up' that you will see if you click on "Start-> all programs. A shortcut to an application placed here will cause this application to start when Windows loads.

    Less obvious place is in the system registry, and it is where most of the assigned tasks/processes will be. The best way to view these is to use the MSCONFIG function (just click 'Start'-> run and then type MSCONFIG in the command line).

    When the MSCONFIG window opens, simply click on the "Startup" tab and you will see a list of processes displayed with a check box next to each entry. You can select any process you want to start (but make sure you do not stop the tasks necessary for Windows or the configuration of your own laptop). When you accept all changes you want to the system will ask you if you want to restart and your laptop restarts then with the changes you have made in force. Note that, after the reboot, you will be informed that the system has started in diagnostic mode to return to normal just relaunch MSCONFIG and on the tab GENERAL, click on the 'normal' radio button

  • Windows XP very slow to start

    The problem started a month ago.  When I start my computer, everything is OK until I click on my "loading your personal settings" icon  It takes several seconds before the wallpaper appears, then probably a minute or more for all the desktop icons load PC.  If I do a very quick restart of all charges.  When I do a disk check, everything seems fine for a day or two, then it's back to being very slow loading.  What can I check?

    It eventually got to the point that is froze on the screen and went no further.  I did a repair of Windows XP.  Now everything seems back to normal.

    Hello

    1. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?

    2. what application are you trying to run?

    Method 1: If the previous steps do not resolve the problem by trying to boot in safe mode and check if you get the same message pop up.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

    Method 2: If the problem does not occur in safe mode, and then restart the computer in clean boot to verify if a third-party program is causing the problem. To configure your computer to clean boot follow the link below.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

    Note: When you are finished troubleshooting, follow step 7 article to start on normal startup.

    You can also visit the link provided below for more information.

    Method 3: Follow the steps in the link given below and check if that helps.

    My personal opinion is that the attention of a lot of people pay to how long it
    is required to start is not justified. Assuming that the speed of the computer is
    otherwise satisfactory, it is generally not worry. Most
    people start their computers once a day or even less frequently. In
    the general scheme of things, even a few minutes at the start is not
    very important. Personally I turn on my computer when I get up the
    morning, then go get my coffee. When I come back, he did start. I have
    don't know how long it took to start and I do not.
     
    However, if you don't want to solve it, it may be due to this
    programs start up automatically and you can stop some of them
    to start this way. On each program, you do not want to start
    automatically, check its Options to see if he has the choice of not doing
    Start (make sure that you actually choose the option do not run, not)
    just one 'do not display the icon"option). Many can easily and better be arrested
    in this way. If this does not work, run MSCONFIG from the start. Run
    line and on the Startup tab, uncheck the programs you want
    starts automatically.
     
    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 get
    more information on the latter with research on the internet and ask questions on
    Specifications 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.

  • Very slow Win7 start menu search

    I have win7 Professional 64-bit, and the search for the start menu is now very slow.

    It used to be instant, but now it takes a good 10 seconds to return results. The results are accurate, just very slow. When searching the process explorer.exe maxes a CPU for the duration of the search until the results are returned - it's almost as if the search on the start menu is not using indexing service, but rather the search for all the files using a conventional search.

    I have rebuilt the index several times and it had no effect.

    I checked options of indexing and 'users' and 'Start menu' folder are included in the index.

    I ran to the resolution of the problems of indexing, and found no problem.

    Interestingly, if I search also using Explorer it works very well - results are returned quickly and simply from the start menu, almost instantly-it research that the problem occurs.

    An interesting observation:

    When I turn off "Hide protected operating system files" research flies along.

    If I allow it so it hides the files it runes very very slow.

    Update: more survey shows that even a whole new user profile suffers the same symptoms. As soon as you hide protected operating system files analysis research on the navigation bar (as if it's a manual route). Show protected files and it's instantaneous.

    We believe that we have made changes both in the application and upload it to our server during the summer that improve performance.  If someone reading this thread continues to have performance of download problems, please post a reply or start a new thread in the forums for Revel here.
