That might blow dust into your CPU.\n\nI do not think the performance of your computer is because of the fan. It is probably a coincidence.\n\nTry going into your task bar and see what else is running that might be slowing you down.

be sure to defrag your hard drive. when you install more that a few programs its always a good idea to do so. May increase your performance speed. also do a registry clean up

If it just started to become slow, it could be because it's gettign older, or is loaded with a bunch of junk. If you have any adware or spyware programs do a scan to clean everything up. Also, ccleaner.com has an awesome free program for cleaning everythign up, gettting rid of what you don't need.

It's very possible that you have a virus, or spyware, or even more probable, a trojan.  Clean it out, and it should be faster.  Also try defragmenting the hard drive as well.

Here are the standard remedies:\n\nA major cause of slow PC's is fragmentation of the hard drive.\nYou need to defragment the HD at least once a week if not more depending on how much you use your computer, and what you do with it.\n\nOne way is to use the defragment utility built into Windows XP.  It is slow but does the job rather well.  Go to:\nStart > Programs > Accessories > System Tools   and then click on System Defrag to run the tool.  It will take several hours so let it run overnight or simply walk away from your PC for a few hours.\n\nA great program for defragging automatically is Diskeeper 10. It costs $30 but is well worth it. Go to www.download.com and search for Diskeeper. Read the Publishers Description and the tech and user reviews. It can be scheduled to run automatically as the program deems necessary, and if you are using your PC and the program launches itself, it will take a backseat to whatever you are doing and give you the priority for CPU usage. I think you'll agree it's a good program to have. It precludes your needing to remember to defrag at regular intervals.\n\nAlso, another major cause of a slow PC is programs that are running in the background. Here's another really good Microsoft tool.  Go to Start > Run >   type in msconfig in the box and click OK.\nThis will bring up a window with several tabs at the top.  Click on the “Startup” tab.  It will list the programs that are running on your PC and eating up resources.  Look them over carefully and turn off any that don’t absolutely have to be running.  Simply click on the “check mark” in the little box beside the program name.  Clicking on it will remove the check mark.  Once you have edited the Startup list, click on Apply and then on OK.  Once you have exited the window, reboot your PC for the settings to take effect.\n\nAnother good thing to have is a little program called FreeRAM Pro. It is free and is available from www.download.com This program puts a little RAM meter on the System Tray and shows how much RAM you have remaining that you are not using at any given time.  I think you may be surprised at how little RAM you have to run other programs. Also, once it is installed you can right click on the little meter, then click on RESTORE and it will open the RAM display window. You can tweak the settings so it will display your CPU usage also.  Then just click “Minimize” and then “To System Tray” to return to the Task Bar.\n\nHope this helps

check if the cooling fans are working properly.\n\nthing is, you might have to get a better cooling fan for your processor, or move your PC to a cooler place.

There a lot of reasons your computer can get slow.\n\nIt can get slow if you are running out of disk space or if limewire is running in the background taking up CPU cycles. Uninstalling it will fix this.\n\nYou can also clear out your Internet Cache to free up disk space. This is in the Internet Explorer "Tool: Internet Options". Menu. Select "Delete Files".\n\nAnother problem is temporary files that never get deleted. I've seen thousands of files left around in the temporary folder. You can clean this up by clicking on the Start button and selecting "All Programs : Accessories : System Tools : Disk Cleanup". CAUTION: This tool will offer to do a lot more than it should. Only select the following. Make sure everything else is unselected.\n\n   "Downloaded Programs"\n   "Temporary Internet Files"\n   "Recycle Bin"\n   <anything with the words 'log' or 'temporary.>\n\nChances are you also have adware or spyware, or even viruses on your computer slowing it down. A friend of mine has a computer that was so infected it took 10 minutes just to start up.\n\nYou should install a good virus scanning program. If you already have one, make sure it is up to date. The virus scanner I use on my home computer is AVG. Best of all, it's free for home use.\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/\n\nNext, a good adware/spyware scanner if Microsoft Defender. Again, this is free (for the time being).\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/spyware/software/default.mspx\n\nA problem with both Microsoft Defender and AVG is they schedule a scan of your computer every night by default. This is a bad thing because it will put way too much wear-and-tear on your computer. Turn off any scheduled scans.\n\nAnother good spyware scanner (again free) is AdAware.\nhttp://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/\n\nFinally, and this one is a difficult one to fix, you probably have a bunch of stuff auto-starting that shouldn't. For example QuickTime, Adobe Acrobat and RealAudio, Microsoft Office, all install little programs that automatically start when your computer starts. These programs are supposed to make the companies main program start up quicker. They load a part of the main program in memory so the next time you want to run Acrobat it runs quicker. The problem is, it uses up your RAM and makes everything else run slower. You can use a special program named MSCONFIG to fix this. You can also use a program called HijackThis which you can download from the web. The problem with these tools is you need to know what should automatically start with your computer, and what shouldn't.\n\nAlso, if you have popups that pop up when you aren't even browsing or when you are at a webpage that shouldn't have popups, your computer has been hijacked by spyware. The only way to get rid of this is to use HijackThis. Download it from the web and have it generate a log file. Then post the log file here (or send me a message with it).\n\nBTW, eMule is much better than limewire and doesn't have spyware.\nhttp://www.emule-project.net/

There are several things to check out regarding your problem.\n\n1. Perhaps your computer infected by a virus, worm, spyware or trojan. Check with your antivirus software and make sure the virus definition is updated regularly. Virus or similar things can slow down your PC performance.\n\n2. Perhaps there is corrupt data on your application. Please make sure to run the defragmentation tool regularly (once a month). This can be useful to monitor your hardisk performance.\n\nThanks.\n\nSony AK\nwww.sony-ak.com\nY!: sonyarianto

May be problem with more heat in CPU or some problem with your RAM. U can fix extra fan or check yr RAM. It may be problem with one of your software. Virus or spyware is the most common things for it.

Maybe it's not your internet.  It could possibly be your pc.  IS your pc new or old?  Does it have enough memory perhaps?  These are probably other issues to look into...

Good that you do adware and spyware cleaning regularly.\nDo you so files and registry cleaning regularly ? If not this could be the source of sluggish PC also. If you do not have a registry cleaner I recommend CClean ( freeware ). Go download. After cleaning do a disk C disfragmentation using\nWindow defragmentation files \nStart/Program/Accessories/system tools / defregmentation\n\nIf still sluggish , don't uninstall Norton but deactivate it\nfrom getting into setup files . \nGo download WinPatrol and deactivate it from boot files.\nThen you can manully use it when you need them.\n\nThen download AVG Anti Virus to use it for life monitoring\ninstead of Norton which historically have proven to slow\ndown setup.\n\nOr alternatively upgrade your RAM to 1.250 GigaBit.\n\nSO choose your options above. \n\nGood Lucj

Computers can run slow for a number of reasons. The first think i would do is look at the system tray by the clock how many little icons are there if there is more that 7 you are running to many apps at start up. To fix this go to Start > Run > msnconfig > the last tab in the window that pops up > unchecked anything that does not look familiar. I would recommend doing disk cleanup and de-fragmenting as sudgested by another user. Also if your Internet program is running slow try going to the Internet Options in the control panel and clearing  the Cache, temporary Internet files and cookies. Don't worry there is hope. If all else fails take it to a local Compusa or Best buy and ask for help. Best buy has a service called Geek squad they are very skilled and can fix any computer problem.

check the CPU usage. if your ranning winXP, go to the task manager.\n\nit depends also on the size of your RAM!
