SOURCE: Slow startup, slow responce.

Well this is an obvious fix but replace your HDD with a 7200 rpm SATA HDD from http://www.newegg.com
It should be a fairly cheap upgrade depending on how much storage you need.

You should see a significant improvement. I be willing to bet your HDD is a slow 5200 rpm and slow seek time.

Remember, the slowest parts of your computer is your HDD and CDROM

Where can i do softwear updates for my acer laptop, it begining to lag a bit.

Hi. Windows updates the drivers automatically once a new digitally signed driver is detected specially Windows 10. By lag do you mean applications open slower than usual or do you mean browsing with a web browser has become slower? If the latter, try clearing your browser's cache.
- On Mozilla Firefox: Press CTRL+SHIFT+DEL simultaneously and click Clear Now
- On Internet Explorer browser: Press CTRL+SHIFT+DEL simultaneously and click Delete
- On Google Chrome: Press CTRL+SHIFT+DEL simultaneously and click Clear Browsing Data
- On Microsoft Edge: Press CTRL+SHIFT+DEL simultaneously and click Clear

I am using toshiba nb 250 mini note book. it is very slow. it becomes dead slow if i access internet. pl guide me to solve this issue. i am using kaspersky internet security 2011. I do scan every...

What info we need to help you better..
1.How much memory you have .
2.You've already stated the brand and model#
3.You've stated the program for your security program (kaspersky)
4.processor type speed.


Your computer may seem a bit slow but you are actually slowing it down by trying to use it while scanning.

*************************RECAPP***************************
1. YOUR COMPUTER SLOW BECAUSE = Kaspersky is working to scan,detect, and disable any thing thats harmful for you.

2. YOUR INTERNET IS SLOW(ER)= Once you connected to the web that added more for Kaspersky to check on,which it does the internet scan in real time, thats another 15% of your memory and resources loaded over.

*************************RECOMMENDATIONS***********************
1. LEAVE YOUR COMPUTER ON LONG ENOUGH TO COMPLETE THE SCANS IT NEED TO DO, ONCE ITS COMPLETE YOU'LL NOTICE YOUR COMPUTER WILL RESPOND FASTER.

2. I PERSONALLY USE (2) PROGRAMS THAT DONT USE TOO MUCH OF MY COMPUTERS' RESOURCES AND MEMORY AND THE ARE:****THREATFIRE (INTERNET, AND PORT SCANNER)********, *************MICROSFT SECURITY ESSENTIALS (VIRUS,MAL-WARE,TROJANS,ECT)********


***********************SOMETHING ELSE TO LOOK FOR****************************
LOOK AT THE BOTTOM RIGHT NEXT TO YOUR TIME...
HOW MANY ITEMS DO YOU HAVE DOWN THERE,
ALL THOSE ITEMS REQUIRE SOME MEMORY TO KEEP THERE , YOU'LL NEED TO FIND ONES THAT YOU DONT NEED ANDSTOP THEM FROM LOADING .

NEXT ONE IS (RIGHT) CLICK YOUR STAT BAR (OR TASK BAR ) THE FIRST THING TO DO IS UNCHECK --> LOCK THE TASK BAR

THEN (RIGHT) CLICK THE TASK BAR AGAIN HOVER OVER TOOLS,THEN UNCHECK ----> QUICK LAUNCH .............THIS WILL HELP TO SPEED YOU UP ON STARTUP(POWER ON) AND FREE SOME RESOURCES

***********************************NOTES***************************
THROUGH-OUT THIS INFO I REALLY PRAY THAT I DIDN'T CONFUSE YOU ANY MORE THAT YOU MAY ALREADY BE I'M ON ALL THE TIME IF I CAN HELP YOU ANY BETTER... , PLEASE RATE ME IF I'VE HELP YOU ANY

Data execution

DEP (data execution prevention) attempts to separate "data" (such as the text of a webpage) from "instructions" ("move the string 'abc' to locations '12345/12346/12347'"), to prevent computer-hackers from introducing "data" (downloaded from a maliciously-constructed web-page) into an area marked as "instructions". The "threat" here is that the "data" will actually be "instructions" of the hacker's choosing, thus giving the hacker a chance to run instructions to completely "take-over" control of your computer.

Click "Start"
Click "All Programs"
Click "Accessories"
Click "System Tools"
Click "Internet Explorer (no add-ons)"
Do some web-surfing.
Close Internet Explorer.
If it closes "normally", then one of the "add-ons" that usually is loaded when Internet Explorer starts is causing the DEP exception.

Start Internet Explorer.
Click Tools
Click Manage Add-ons.
Choose one "suspicious" add-on, and "disable" it.
Close I.E.
If it closes normally, then that add-on should _stay_ as "disabled".

Speed of computer

Try testing the speed, go to this website and see what results you get. It takes a couple of minute so so be a bit patient. http://www.bandwidthplace.com/speedtest/ If it's slow, report it to your DSL supplier.
