Your memory is constipated from all the ---- you have running in background. Either add more memory, reboot when you have something critical, or add the ad block software to your browser to cut down all pop ins. DO you have an older computer with slower processor? That will do it also since nowadays they load the web pages with so much garbage that it is hard to keep up with for a slower, older cpu.

do the folowing
go to the programs section in the control panel and uninstal all programs that you do not or seldom use
when that is done go to the device manager and defrag the hard drive
next consider more ram memory ( another stick of ram the same as the first one installed )
empty the trash can for the e-mails
after all start the check disc program to rectify missing register items and fix program errors on the hard drive
Doing all of that will take around 10 hours but you are clearing all of the problems that cause slow computer operation
If it still runs slow , change your service provider

How is your battery? Sure sounds like it's too weak to turn over the starter.

Assuming that it always started just fine and then the battery is the problem. Many times it slows down gradually--like it turns over slower and slower until the battery finally has no power.

Try charging it.

Computer runs too slowly and ''grinds''

Depending on the situation, It could be you need more ram. If your running Windows Vista, 2-3 years old computers are probably coming with about 512mb-2 gb's or ram. In which case grab at least 3 gb's or ram and you'll be ok. If it's an xp system. grab at least 1gb or ram. Internet delay though could possibly be due to your ISP or perhaps a virus/spyware. There are certain viruses and spyware that slow down internet connection while leaving your pc running fast.

C6180 printing slow

This could be from the image you are printing. If you are printing from a computer or memory card, the dpi (dots per inch) may be higher than some.Standard printing is typically 400dpi, and you can change the settings on your computer or the printer directly. Memory cards and some photos from your computer may be 600dpi and will likely take much longer to print since there is more "color information" that it is trying to fill.
Let me know if this helps.

System is very very slow

There are many causes to that simptom (assuming you are using any version of windows):
1 - a disk full of temporary internet files, and loads of other junk used once by the operating system;
2 - a disk that has not been defragmented for a long time
3 - dust! it gets in all the crevices of the machine, and it overheats, making it slower and slower. Recently I vacuumed a computer at work and brought it from 85 centigrade degrees to 41 degrees, just by removing dust in the cpu cooler, and it brought a major improvement in performance.
And some other causes, but these are the most typical.
