  2. Brothers computer started running incredibly slow

    Well, it first started a couple of days ago he asked me to take a look at it and so I did opened it up first made sure everything was plug in (just in case), then got on opened up ad aware and avg free virus scanner, nothing came up everything was clean. Opened google chrome and it WAS INCREDIBLY SLOW, nothing extreme was going on, on the processes side. Cleaned cookies etc. still not any faster

    Brothers specs:
    Intel Pentium 4 3.2 ghz
    ddr 333 (I think) 2.25 gigs
    Windows xp pro 32 bit
    7600GT BFG
    Killer NIC network card (just installed that way better than his old one)

    I dont know whats wrong with it and Im defragging his pc right now, any suggestions?

    Brothers computer started running incredibly slow

    Definitely run a malwarebytes scan.

    Is the whole computer slow, or is it just internet related tasks?

    Factory Reset made pc incredibly slow

    So, I factory reset my PC due to it becoming slow. I used the built-in factory reset feature. It's a Dell PC. It takes literal hours to get onto the desktop. The strangest thing is the fact that the computer runs incredibly smoothly in safe mode, but as
    soon as I restart into normal windows, logging in takes up to half an hour. Please help me with this, as my computer is completely unusable
