My hard drive access indicator

No offense, but Honestly that is to vague of a question. Those symptoms sound normal for a slow computer. You should consider how much you have to put towards upgrading your computer, if it is too slow for you. Taking your computer into a service center like geek squad or a local computer specialist would allow access to tools that are required to assess the underlying issue or performance.
Using online tools to identify computer issues is extremely dangerous to your data due to possibility of downloading malware and viruses if you are not familar with identifying risks. If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/chris_51d7c1b240c21e38

Your computer may be loaded with spyware, virus's, trojans,etc. and that will make your computer run slow also.
To get rid of any spyware,virus,trojan,etc you will need to do the following:

Download,install and run Microsoft Safety Scanner...

I feel like my computer is running slowly because

You should try defragging your machine first. That is cheap. Look under start -> accessories -> system -> defragment. This will take a while but it will definintely improve things. You can also try programs like CCleaner to fix your registry (and defrag).

Memory is fairly cheap. Many places have a tool to tell you exactly the memory upgrades that you can perform. Crucial, New Egg, etc. will probe your machine or ask you information about the machine.

You might also want to check to see that your WIndows updates are up to date. You should also check your virus program.

I have a Gateway LP2417 monitor and there's No sound.Hoe do I fix it,so I can hear the video that is playing?

This monitor may not have built-in speakers. It may have supported Gateway's monitor mounted sound bar. That sound bar connected to the 3.5 mm audio out on a computer and a DIN port on the monitor. The simplest solution is to connect your source to appropriate speakers. Depending on your audio setup, you could connect the video source to a receiver with HDMI IN and HDMI Out (ARC), computer speakers or an audio extractor. (If you are using an HDMI cable between the Gateway LP2417 and a computer, you may need to reset the audio output to use basic computer speakers (3.5mm jack).) VGA and DVI connections don't support audio so I assume you are using the HDMI port. I hope this helps. Cindy Wells

Do i need a driver for old gateway gmax2000 speakers connected to an old acer-based home built pc my nephew gave me?

No you don't need a driver. These are very plain powered speakers that come with a mains adapter and a lead with a 3.5mm stereo jack at both ends. Plug one in the speaker and the other into the headphone jack on the front or the speaker socket on the back which will either be a socket on the motherboard, or if your son put a sound card in the computer, it will be in a sound card. If it doesn't play straight away, go into Settings - Audio and make sure the sound card or the On-Board Audio is enabled. This shows the cable https://picclick.com/Vintage-Gateway-2000-ACS41-Altec-Lansing-Multimedia-Computer-314990339798.html#&gid=1&pid=1 More here https://www.google.com/search?q=gateway+gmax2000+speakers ..
