Running real slow,sometimes takes 20 minutes or longer to boot up...

check your drive in which windows is installed.if it is nearly full you should increase it's size by managing from other partition.


this is a general problem which happens , due to registry issues , clutters , fragmentation problems and so on.
i suggest you 3 different ways to handle this.

1.if tou have a windows cd. just insert it and select windows repair and proceed to the instructions.

2.purchase any any good registry repair and computer optimisation software suchas IOLO SYSTEM MECHANIC ,REGISTRY MECHANIC, ADVANCED SYSTEM CARE etc.


3. to be cheap and effective, you may use trial version of IOLO SYSTEM MECHANIC.


these will optimise your pc automatically.
