First and foremost. If you are on the internet, you'll want to have anti virus and anti spyware. There are free versions online.

Another tip is to defragment your hard drive. Go to Start, All Programs, Accessories, System Tools,
you'll find programs you can run to clean up your drives.

Just a few tips for ya

Hope that helps

What is the reason of very slow speed of laptop hp 6710b intel core 2 duo

Slow computer If you have a virus program installed, it is most likely is running a scan on your hard disk. It can slow down your computer especially if you have a large hard drive. After scanning is completed then the computer will be faster.
To make your computer (hard disk) lean and mean, uninstall any programs you do not use.
Also you need to maintain your hard disk by running Disk Cleanup this will remove old temp files and old compressed files etc.
This will reduce the number of files the virus scanner has to scan. Plus running Defrag. this makes your files contiguous so the system can access files off the hard drive quicker because it does not work as hard.. Disk Cleanup and Defrag should be carried out at least once a month.
If you have 512Mb of RAM installed then installing more RAM will speed up your computer. After installing your graphics card, you may need to disable the built-in graphics card in the BIOS for the new graphics card to work properly.

What is super computer system

A super computer system is the term used to describe any computer system that performs with a speed higher than that of the ordinary computers. They are used by industries that require high mathematical computations. Examples of its use include the aviation industry, weather forecasting, space industry, and so on.
Its processing speed is extra ordinarily high.
It may chance you to know that no computer maintains the name of 'super computer' for so long. That is because there is a popular saying that "super computers of today become ordinary computers of tomorrow".
With the increasing technology on the speed of modern day computers, whenever the speed of the ordinary pc is upgraded to meet up to that of super computers, new super computers have to evolve, leaving the previous super computers as ordinary pc's.

I hope that was helpful?
Please, rate the answer if it was, and have a lovely day.

Can i adjust the fan speed in the bios on my hp zd8000

You don't have to reduce the FAN speed, because the Fan power works in PWM (Pulse Width Modulation). I.E if the CPU processing is increasing due to high process load, the fan speed changes accordingly to maintain a CPU normal temperature.
