Repairing a Slow PC

Ed Lathrop

A slow computer makes working or playing around on your PC painful! It seems like a short time ago this same computer was flying around on cyberspace. Now, it doesn't even load a web page without making you wait for what seems like a year while it ever so slowly downloads the page piece by piece.

If it's up to you to seek a solution, you may think you're in over your head before you even start. So before tossing your computer out the nearest window, pause for a moment. The solution to your problem may only be a few mouse clicks away.

Fixing a slow computer is a step by step process. The first step is to assess what changes have been made to the computer lately. Have any new programs or hardware been added just before your computer went sour? Have any email attachments been opened? Are you running something that may require more RAM be added?

Windows Operating System Registry

Repairing Slow Computer

Many times, without any provocation whatsoever, a PC just becomes slow. When this is the case, the next logical step is to see what is happening with the registry. A Windows operating system contains a hierarchal data base known as a registry. Information about anything the OS needs to address, internally or externally is stored in the registry. Windows needs information stored there to perform even the most fundamental task.

The registry is sort of like a police person standing in the middle of busy highway directing traffic. The traffic the registry is directing is between the computer's software and its hardware. If the policeman does a poor job, traffic will come to a standstill. If he/she does a terrible job, there will be a crash. The wrong signals the cop may be flashing can be likened to wrong bits of information in the registry.

Giving the Operating System Too Much Work

In some cases, bad bits of information cause the operating system to perform operations that are totally useless. What's worse, it must perform these operations over and over again before it times out and moves on. You can see how this will make a computer seem as if it is actually very slow.

If you haven't tried a registry cleaner to make a slow computer fix, this might be the time. A cleaner can scan the registry for data that shouldn't be there and is getting in the way of the CPU. When it finds the bad data, the cleaner will erase it from the registry, which can help your PC to regain its lost speed.

Since there are few things more annoying than a computer that seems like it is stuck in the mud, it is well worth it to do a registry scan and see what's up inside the operating system. Free scans are available so you can see if it is bad bits of information inside your PC's registry causing all your problems. If so, cleaning the registry by using the registry scanner's cleaning function is definitely the order of the day.
