View 3 Replies View RelatedI am using a DSL connection with a maximum download speed of upto 2MBPS but i usually recieve it for about 1-1.5MBPS. I have tried using Download Accelerator softwares to increase my speed but wuth those some spam also come into my computer so i am not using it anymore. Is there any way by which i can increase my internet speed by doing some changes in Windows internally. Also while using sharing sites my speed tends to fall to about 45KBPS.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a quick question. And thank you all by the way. Everyone is so helpful here! ( I am new oh and inexperienced at computers!) I want to speed up my computer. i was reading a book and it said there are some tools to help speed it up such as disc cleanup, Disk Defragmenter, and Chkdsk?? My computer is really slow so im trying to see whats wrong with it. I have done all the virus stuff. Oh and I deleted a lot of unused programs which I thought would make it so much faster and free up some space but when I went back under the C folder in program files, it was only like one less mb or gb whatever it is. haha cant you see im not that good with this stuff! Anyway, for disc cleanup... will that speed it up? I dont want to delete anything. Will it delete stuff? as for the chkdsk. should I do that to see whats wrong and what is disk defrag. Should I do that.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have 2 computers, one is a HP laptop and the other is a desktop pc, and they are both running kind of slow. I've heard that installing more memory would help speed up the computer. I've been to a site where you can enter your computer model and they will tell you what memory is right for your computer, I have no problem finding out the memory for my laptop but I have a problem looking for memory for the desktop pc. It was a HP Pavilion 8655c but I installed a different cd writer and a dvd writer, upgraded the motherboard and upgraded from a Pentium 3 to a Celeron 4 processor, and I was told that this is now a custom built pc. I was told when I bought the motherboard that I could install over 4 mb's of RAM and I am currently running on 248 mb. How can I find out what memory that I need to install on this computer? I scan for viruses and spyware/adware frequently, and neither are installed on either of my computers. I have deleted the temporary internet files, uninstalled some programs that I don't use that often, disabled everything that starts at startup, and defragmented the hard drives. Other than installing more memory, what else can I do to speed up my computers? My laptop runs off of Windows XP home/512mb of ram/30 gb hard drive.
My desktop pc runs off of Windows XP Pro/248 mb of ram/1 hard drive is 30 gb and the other is 120 gb. If there is any other info you need to help me speed up my computers please let me know.
There is a website that I have been attending for 4 years now, in which you can play games, chat, ect ect.They have what is called a "Speed Test" to test your computer in many different areas (3-D, Text, Pixels, Math, ect.) that you can take for free, by just logging in as a guest.All you have to do is come up with a nickname, login, go to SINGLE PLAYER tab at the bottom left of your screen, click it, then go to the second or third to last game, on the bottom right of your screen, and click it (Greyish box).Up comes the speed test...Just click start (make sure you have everything closed out on the screen as it takes your computer through several speed tests)In no way is this some kind of promo or anything, its just a really COOL way to test your computer.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI was just wondering wondering what all I can do to keep my computer running as fast and as stable as possible. I am aware of the basics such as antivirus and spyware protection. I also run CCleaner regularly to keep my registry clean and keep unnecessary clutter from building up on various applications.Does anyone have any additional ways to keep everything running top notch?
View 8 Replies View RelatedMy laptop is an hp pavillion dv4000 version 2002(w/SP3), and I got it almost 3-4 years ago. It has, as expected, gotten slow over the years. But now, it's EXTREMELY slow. As in, it takes like 10 minutes to start up. It takes several minutes for my internet browser to pop up. Doing more than one thing at once is impossible. And I constantly have "Virtual Memory Minimum Too Low" popping up...from doing even the simplest tasks on it.
I really like this laptop and don't want to purchase a new one. I want to completely wipe off everything from the laptop and then reinstall windows XP so that I can start afresh. Problem is, I don't have the CD, my laptop never came with it. The manual says it already came with the recovery feature pre-installed.
My computer has been running slow lately, i have looked at my hijack log, and let me know if there's anything there that should not be.

View 4 Replies View RelatedThe comp's CPU usage is almost always running at 100%. I can see this in the task manager and the fans always seem to be running on overdrive (very loud). Sometimes it'll calm down and usage will run at a normal level but this is only for a short time and then it jumps back up and fans as well. I thought at first it might be my AVG antivirus but i've removed and still have the same problem.
