Hard Drive slow

Depending on how long it's been since you installed the OS the performance of the OS lowers. It gradually slows down.
You could backup your data and do a fresh install of the OS.

An OS can be only as fast as the system. So one option is to buy a better PC.
Buying a whole PC can be expensive. A cheaper alternative would be to buy a Solid State Drive (SSD) and install the OS on it. SSD will make it seem like your computer is now 3 times faster than before.

There could be virus involvement in the system. if you dont want to buy a new system or do a fresh install then you should first scan your system for any viruses, malware, spyware, adware, bloatware etc. removing these application is wondrous for the system.

Hope this helps.

Computer become slow for various reasons please check the followings:
1) Free Space on hard disk, especially on drive 'C'2) OS , which operating system you have installed?3) Motherboard and RAM = RAM greatly affects speed of computer4) Most importantly processor! check the processor of your computer!5) Screen Resulution

There are many reason why a PC becomes slow even if it is brand new. I could have answered more specifically if you have mentioned your CPU configuration


For immediate solution I recommend you followings:


# Increase the RAM
# Add GPU
# Install good Antivirus or Registry fixer
# Remove unwanted or large program or game from the PC

Installing any os ahould not be affected by a virus. Download the iso, burn it out or flash it to usb. Boot from the disc and follow the prompts. Viola, new os and no virus.

OS problem . install a new os and also..your pc is too slow and you should read the instructions to keep your pc faster..

you want to download registry mechanic and speed it up software from the site www.download.com
If you can't find this then check how much time you spent by using OS if it is more then 6 months then install the new OS

if your comp has recently slowed down it is advisable to get a recomended virus and spyware/adware cleaner and do a scan with the latest updates and definitions installed.and like bootz84 said clean the heardware and give your os a spring clean.

in extreme case a factory default or a new install operating system can also be influential.

You need to download the drivers from the Compaq/HP WEB support/download page. Make sure you select your model laptop and the XP or Vista Windows version of the drivers you require and install them.
