PC Slow

Hi
I am using a pc that has been stored for a year, but it was brand new when i put it away, only been used about a month. But as some of you may know, our other one broke so we decided to give this one a try.
this one seems to be running very slow, takes an age to jump between running applications, and its a nightmare really. I thought this pc wouldve been better than the old one, as the old one was almost 3 yrs old.
Any suggestions please, Thanks :xmassign:
