Points: 100,000,000,000.05 Donate | | PC Help My computer is being really slow lately and it's been acting up too. It hesitates on the simplest things like opening a folder or scrolling through menus. It also take forever for programs to open. I run clean ups, defrags, virus scan and adware scans but that doesn't do much. I have a resgistry cleaner but everytime I run it the program gives me the same list of problems so i don't think it's doing anything. Any suggestions like some programs i can run (preferable free) to make it run faster? Thanks. JSF

The program's not free, but you can use 20 times for free... I don't know any windows repair that's free... You probably have to format your PC to start working fast again  |

You might also have a virus or spyware. Do a check to be sure. |

Points: 2,167.03 Donate | | Well, my computer has been acting up for about a month, so the other day I backed up some important files onto a external harddrive and restored it. I also erased my avitar, so Iamstrange14's name will be up there for a while.  |

I have used the restore to new feature before when my computer got bad and it fixed the problem for awhile.
