updated computer from windows xp sp1 to sp3 now it runs SLOW.?

You can download ccleaner for free here: http://bit.ly/1Bk5V5C

First open CCleaner

Go to the Cleaner tab and you will be confronted by a very confusing lineup of checkboxes.

To make this brief, below is my recommended setup:

Under internet explorer check temporary internet files, cookies, and last download location. Most users don't really need this stuff. keep history and bookmarks unchecked, history is a maybe, but you don't want to lose bookmarked sites. You can normally leave Windows Explorer, System, and Advanced alone.

Run CCleaner and it will start deleting files.

afterward it will present you with a list of the files deleted, you really don't need to go through it as it will be several pages long.

The registry cleaner is recommended for slightly more advanced users. Use it after uninstalling programs as they will often leave behind incorrect registry entries.

If you decide to run Registry cleaner then review the items detected and always back up the registry (I keep a folder aside for this)

The Tools tab lets you uninstall programs and set startup programs. Why do you need this if Windows has all of these features? Especially with Vista Home Ed. The windows defender software explorer( startup programs) doesn't pick up some entries (however software explorer is easier to use).

Using CCleaner to uninstall programs and then check for leftover registry entries takes less time.

Under Options you can determine how CCleaner cleans your files. I leave this alone.

okay to the replace internet site pass to start then precise click on my pc then clcik domicile windows replace tab the region link is there click it you nicely choose ie then you relatively nicely additionally want a actual replica of domicile windows then it nicely seek for updates you'll be able to might desire to instal some lively x component for it to seek then it nicely provide you to suggestions convey or custom click convey it nicely seek for best priority updates then whilst performed that's going to coach domicile windows xp sp3 that's like 60 some mbès I also have a sluggish connection to i took me like 6 hours yet i downloaded the form bar many no longer practice its downloading in spite of the undeniable fact that it is so get sp3

uninstall sp3 and install sp2 if that works try sp3 again , many copies of the SP3 update didn't have the correct dlls, and sometimes if you had updated automatically different dlls would not work together, search for the final sp3 update it was about 316Mb

A good tool I used to clean up and speed up my PC is CCleaner. You can download it for free here http://j.mp/UrADbE

It's a very good program and easy to use.
