Is Your PC Slowing Down?


Do you find yourself waiting longer than you used to for your Windows XP PC to open a file or is it taking too long to load a page on the internet? Do you find yourself yelling for some serenity, right now? Before you go out and buy a new PC, try the steps in the attached file.

You should already be doing a routine backup of your system, so be sure to run another one just before starting this procedure. You should also have a list of usernames and passwords written down for all your internet sites. If you do not, now is a great time to jot them down because they will be removed. When you run this procedure, it will remove all the cookies, temporary internet files, offline web pages, old chkdsk files, temporary files, temporary pc health files and empty the recycle bin. Be patient while your PC works on cleaning your system. It will take time, especially if you haven't done it before.

The instructions are pretty straight forward, but if you don't feel comfortable doing this, just have a friend or relative who knows about computers come over and help the first time. Then, set a reminder on your calendar to run this every month to keep your PC running at its optimum speed.
