You can speed up your computer by:

-- cleaning system junk
-- optimizing computer services
-- optimizing internet
-- repairing registry
-- defraging registry
-- clearing browsers junk

do these things with some secure tool such as Intel Software Partner Reginout.

With slow computers, there are a couple of things it might be. The first thing I would suggest is to run your Disk Cleanup. Go to Start-programs-accessories- system tools-disk cleanup. most of this stuff you will not use, if any of it has the size of 1 or more GB, clean it up.
Next under system tools run disk defragmenter. Lastly, on the easy side, check the free disk space, you want 10% or more free. Just open my computer and see how much is free vs how much total you have and do some house keeping, I'd suggest your downloads folder.
The other thing is the programs you have starting with windows, go to startk-run and type "msconfig". Select the startup tab. I can't say specifically what to remove, but would suggest things like google startup bar, open office/Microsoft office. Make sure you restart your computer after removing each item and making sure it starts back up correctly.

Both of the following are found by clicking Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools

Run Disk Cleanup first (make sure everything is checked and and click OK)
Run Disk Defragmenter

Both of those steps may take a while.

Then install Microsoft Security Essentials, update and run.
After that is finished, if you have any anti-virus software, make sure it is updated and run it.
Run both until all security software reports 0 found.

Also make sure all toolbars in your Internet Explorer (or what ever you use to access the internet) are disabled. Those can eat up resources.

Della 12 Quart 1600-Watt Electric Pressure Cooker Multi-Functional Timer Slow Cook XL Part number: 048-GM-48261 Unable to get this cooker to slow cook.

it is possible that you have misunderstood the instructions
for a slow cooker you have low medium and high
press slow cook and on low and in 8 hours the food is cooked
I see from your statements that you expect the cooker to be set on slow cook but cook at a high temperature fast
if it says slow cook --9 hours and the temp is 125 degrees , have you waited 9 hours to see if it is cooked as the slow cooking process is by the gradual build up of heat in the container that is not expelled by radiation to the air
in a pressure cooker , that build up of heat also builds up pressure and so it cooks better
other solution--- if it is not right return it for a warranty refund or if out of warranty , junk it and get a different make

I am confused is the russell hobbs slow cooker a slow cooker or is it a pressure cooker i am looking for a pressure cooker not a slow cooker

Russel Hobbs makes both a slow cooker and a pressure cooker - confusingly in Europe they call Slow Cookers pressure cookers. The only way to really tel is if there is a special lid with valves and locks (pressure cooker) not a glass or plain lid (slow cooker).

PC SLOW BOOT UP-SLOW OPENING WORD DOC-SLOW E-MAIL RETRIEVAL-SLOW-SLOW-SLOW. WHAT SHOULD I BUY OR DO?

Slow performance is mainly caused by corrupted system or data files withing the hard drive. To maximize the full potential of the hard drive and when everything is slowing down formatting it and reinstalling the OS would be a great fix. If anything else fails, then it migh have had acquired too many bad sectors already and might need replacement.

Slow cooker will only stay on warm. How do I put

This slow cooker has 3 settings LOW, HIGH, & WARM
When you plug the slow cooker in the display should show a "0". When you press the "COOK TIME" button, the display should go to 1 then 2 then 3 etc. each time the "COOK TIME" button is pressed. If 1,2,3,4,5 or 6 hours are selected, then the slow cooker will operate on the "HIGH" setting. If 7,8,9, or 10 hours are selected, then the slow cooker will operate on the "LOW" setting. To start the cooking cycle press the "ON/OFF" button. To interrupt the cooking cycle at any time, press the "ON/OFF" button. When the cooking cycle is complete, your slow cooker will automatically switch to the "WARM" setting. If the "ON/OFF" button is pressed when the the digital display shows "0", then the slow cooker will automatically start on the "WARM" setting.
If the "COOK TIME" button does not change the display numbers then unplug the slow cooker and hold both buttons down as you plug the slow cooker in. Keep the buttons pressed for a count of ten, then release them and the slow cooker should work correctly
