Windows xp everything about it runs sllloowwwly.

[Karen L.]

About 4 days ago, my system started running really really
really slow. From start up to running applications is
really slow. How can I fix this? I have already ran
chkdsk on the system and defrag and cleared internet
files and history and ran adware 6 on it. How can I
speed everything back up to where is used to be? PLEASE
HELP!!!

You might try to remove the files that have accumulated
in the temp folders. The correct temp folder can be
found by right clicking on MyComputer and selecting
properties. In the properties click on advanced tab the
enviornmental variables will list the location of the
tempfile folder.

You tried looking under Task Manager to check high usage processes? Is your
CPU at 100% activity?
