Slow Computers
The most frustrating thing to experience on a computer. When new, it ran fast, was responsive and using it was a pleasure. After time, unless maintained, computers get bogged down with lots of programs, files and updates which are all hogging your computer's resources.
I recommend a computer service every 6 month for heavy users who spend a lot of time on their machine and an annual service for light users. Not only will a speedy PC or laptop extend the life of your device but speeding it up includes vital security updates, diagnistic checks and a full healthcheck.
A full service of your PC includes the following:
- Full virus and malware scan with removal of any threats
- Full hard drive scan to check its physical condition
- Internal temperature check to ensure your machine is cooling properly
- Cleaning of any fans and airflow systems
- Scan and repair of computer registry
- Removal of corrupt files and programs
- Removal of unused and conflicting programs
- Prevent unneeded programs starting when machine boots
- Update any existing programs to the latest security release (not an upgrade to newer versions)
- Full windows update and set up of automtaic updates to keep your version current and safe
