my laptop lags alot and starts up slow. is there any programs to speed up your pc and make things run much faster?

you can stop the ammount of things that start up with your pc but doing msconfig in the run box, also stop any unwanted services aslso, and go into control panel and turn off any programmes you dont use like windows media player etc like i just use itunes, there are alot of articles on the net also which will tell you some hints and tricks also like on makeusof which is a good site for hints and tricks

hope this helps x

first check info about your anti virus soft if it eats system resources better change to a different v guard also as kristy said you can try stopping startup services and apps. run disk defragmenter and see if it helps.

thanks kirsty51 and J11, really helped

Tried it improved performance a lil

You should try TuneUp. It's just great.

this is simple ... remove unwanted startup programs ( type msconfig in run or search in win 7 )
then 1 more thing which makes big impact .. try ccleaner
its a soft.. which will make ur pc a lamborgini

thank you very much, my laptop is working to the max now

First You need a better engine ( processor), then you need more horsepower (ram) and a dedicated video card not the integrated crap and yes you can stop certain programs from startinduring reboot!

tune-up works well
