what's the problem in my pc? its damn slooooow...

Thanks for suggestion but i do it regularly and there is not much temporary files.
but still gettting some problem. Its the problem since i bought this computer a year ago. Is this possible i have problem in my ram,mother board or processor?
Anyway have a nice day and happy mylotting!!!

Well then once give your computer to the servicing people they will tel you out. May be the problem might be with the DVD drive as well. I think that is what you have to do and it is a new computer so you will have some sort of warranty so try that also. . Good luck.

i think thats only the way now. thanks again for responsing!!!

friends friends friends...!!
its answer is very simple...
there is no virus, no dvd problem...etc...
its just because ur OS has become old ...
this happens because of installtion of much more applications..
and the dvd writer is slow because of the change in DMA setting....

In simple ...the solution is...
remove the old OS...install a fresh...OS..
it will solve ur problem...
i have experienced this much many time...

Keep lotting....keep earning....
and dont forget to mark it as best response if it helps u...,thanks friend...
Bye....

Thank you for response but i have formatted my computer several times trying different xp version and this is the problem since i have bought the computer. Many other mylotters has already suggested me to reinstall and has given many other nice suggestion too.
Thanks again and happy mylotting!!!

I am sure its not virus. And i dont know which ram is mine but it think its ddr2. Is there any way to check which ram is it? And i have a got a lot of space in c: drive but still its slow. Its the problem since i bought computer so, i don't think its problem in softmare. Can it be hardware?

I forgot thanks for response.... and what is tune up utilites?what does it do?does this really works?

hmmmm....

thanks for response friend!!! Once i have tested my dvd writer in my friends computer and i don't think there is problem in it. It worked very fine. Even if there is the problem in dvd writer then why is my pendrive slow too and why is there break when two programs are used simultaneously.Anyway have a nice time mylotting!!!

i could be the problem of dvd rom but other applications are slow too. And drivers are installed automatically in computer. Once my brother told it may be because of celeron processor. He said celeron processor are really slow. Is it?
Anyway thanks a lot for response.

yes Celeron processors are cheaper because they are slow. they don't have much cache. yous your computer installs drivers automatically but it's not enough. you should install them by yourself to have all abilities your computer have. install your video card driver and you won't see graphic as frames.

Thanks for response!!
I don't see any symptoms of computer virus and my anti virus is working very well and updated too. I have nothing much installed in it. Only a regular programs like office, antivirus, winamp, dreamweaver,messenger, a game and other small programs. I don't know speed of my hard disk but it was bought along with computer a year ago.
hmm i will try that software. thanks a lot again and happy mylotting!!

No!!! my computer is slow from the time i bought. No matter how many times i format its same. And i am sure this is not virus problem. Thanks for trying your best. Thanks for caring my computer. Happy mylotting!!!

What's your OS, are you using Vista now? If you will downgrade it to XP, you will see the difference in speed. Vista is not really advisable for single core computers as it uses a lot of memory. Or either your harddisk is too large or too small, coz compatibilty is also important. If it is that slow from the time you bought it, then what I can suggest is, a downgrade of OS. Get back to Windows XP and your computer will surely get faster.

Hmm i am not using vista. I have windows xp sp3 in mine. But no matter what Os i put its same. Can it be due to processor. Most of my friend and brother says its due to the celeron processor. They say they are not good. Is celeron processor really bad?
What my brother says is "celeron processor has very low cache memory and it cannot carry out multitasking efficient." Can this be the reason?Are celeron processor really bad?
Thanks for responsing and hope to get response again .....

Oh so, you're processor is a Celeron and not a Pentium. They are both Intel but yes, Celeron is slower than Pentium. If you will compare the speed of Pentium and Celeron with the same speed, let's say both are 3Ghz, of course, Pentium will run faster and smoother. That's why Celeron is cheaper than Pentium. Yes, it can possibly be that your processor is the one that causes the problem. So what you can do is an upgrade in hardware, either you can add RAM/memory, make it 2GB, then upgrade your videocard to at least 256mb, or you can also change your processor to Intel Pentium IV with the same speed. After the upgrade, you can see the difference. I hope you can really solve your problem. Happy myLotting!

huh?? i think i found it then.. i do have 256 mb video card. then i have again a question? do i need to change whole motherboard to change the processor or just can simply change processor only? will it match?
Thank you for solving my problem... but i don't know will my parents agree to change it or not.

Fortunately no, you don't need to change your motherboard, since you are going to change your processor from Intel to another Intel. You will only needed to change your motherboard if you change your processor to AMD coz it has different size. Probably your processor is a socket type, and perhaps it's on socket 478. So buy a Pentium IV, 3Ghz, single core. Dual core or later processors are not compatible with your motherboard. Are you the one who will put the processor on the motherboard? I think it's better if you just let an expert do it. Or if you buy the processor, bring your CPU and let them be the one to connect it. I hope your computer will be better soon. Have a nice day! Happy myLotting!

hmm so i don't need to change my whole motherboard. Atleast some relief. Now i have got to convince my parents to change processor.
Very very thanks a lot.

no you'll have to change motherboard too. because I think your processor is too old. your motherboard has socket and not all intel processors will work on it. only the same generation will do. so I think the same generation processor won't be a big relief for you. you'll have to change both

user had told that he use DVD writer then how CD, i think u r wrong. hey i dont know how to upload new windows XP what is meant by uploading

i don't know about uploading new xp too. Do u mean to format and reinstall it.
Anyway thanks for trying...

if that problem continues after installed new DVD writer then i suggest you to format you PC and try again

what is your DVD Writing software did u use nero express or any other else

hello handsomerohith!!!
I use windows xp sp 3. I have an anti tools for deleting temporary files in my computer. Do you mean processor of computer? then its 3.06ghz celeron processor.

I will check out my friends dvd writer in my pc. But the problem is not only with the burning dvds only. When programs(like nero,office,or some bigfile game ) are being installed in computer from harddisk or pendrive or cds it becomes too slow,looks as it has low frame rate. And also takes more time to copy files from pendrive.

What i want to ask is
Can it be due to celeron processor?
but no one responded about it.:-(

Anyway thanks for response and looking forward for your response again ...

Hi, I'm a computer engineer and hope I can give some advice. I myself use a PC (laptop) with only a 1.73GHz Celeron processor and it's much, much faster than what you're describing, so I would say it's definitely not the speed of your processor that's the problem, unless the processor itself is actually faulty. The first thing that came to mind for me when I read of your problem is spyware. About 90% of the calls I get from people whose PCs are running at a complete crawl, turn out to be because their PCs have become infested with spyware (my Mac customers never have this problem, though!). But then, you say you've had this problem since you bought the PC.

So, the second thing that comes to mind is: did you ever try reformatting the PC and reinstalling Windows from scratch? I had a customer with a problem that sounds like yours, recently - he had a Dell laptop that took 10 minutes to boot up and ran at a snail's pace. With his permission, I wiped it and reinstalled Windows (XP Pro), and it now boots up in 30 seconds and runs like a dream. If you haven't tried reformatting and reinstalling, that may be your answer - and it will get rid of any spyware, viruses or any other malware that may have been there too!

The PC may even have been messed with before you bought it, by someone at the shop playing around with it - that happened to a friend of mine who bought a new laptop recently and it was running like complete garbage, especially when she was on the Internet. I had a look at her network settings, and there were all sorts of weird network configurations in there, for various strange places she knew nothing about. I deleted all of them and her laptop has run beautifully ever since.

Hope this has been some help!

I am sure its not spyware problem in mine. I have tried formatting too. So thats not the problem. But i don't know about the network setting you are talking about. Can this be managed by we simple persons or it needs experts to do this? Either this may be the problem or its my processor which is damaged. If it is easy to manage network connection then, could you please direct me the steps to manage this, if possible.
thanks a lot...Really nice to get an engineer to fix my computer . Happy mylotting!!!

Hmm, if you've already re-formatted your PC, then it wouldn't be the networking configurations either, as all of that would have been wiped out along with the reformat. On my friend's laptop, which was Vista, it was under Control Panel/Network & Sharing, and within that, I found about 6 network connections she'd never heard of! When I deleted them, her previously unusably slow laptop ran like a rocket.

At this point, I can only recommend taking it to an experienced PC technician who can run performance tests on it to find out where it's failing. As a lot of your symptoms sound like they might be drive-related, maybe there's a problem with your SATA or IDE bus, whichever type of hard drive bus you have. It may be simply some sort of incorrect setting in the BIOS that was wrongly configured before you bought it, which is easily solved and at no cost, or it may be a faulty piece of drive-related hardware which means spending some money on new components. Hope you can get this mystery solved!

thank you for trying!!! i will get my computer checked soon.....

I am not familiar with master and slave.:-( and there is not only problem with burning . There are other problems too.
Anyway thanks for responsding!!!

I was thinking there is some problem in my processor. It is really time for me to change my processor but its not easy. But i think we have to change whole motherboard to change processor. And its not too cheap to do this.
Your response was really informative. Very very thanks a lot and happy mylotting!!!
