PC Diagnostics Software

many thanks to you all for your suggestions - I will be working my way through them over the coming week!!!

Have tried Registry Mechanic, and this seems to have speeded up the PC with no crashes over the last couple of days.

Interestingly, a number of the other suggestions were giving reports of between 500 and 700 problems, whereas Registry Mechanic found and repaired 255!!

Again, many thanks for all suggestions received.

I tend to start with Windows Advanced Care (http://www.download.com/Advanced-WindowsCare-Personal/3000-2086_4-10596895.html?tag=lst-0-4) to try and fix my machines when they perform slowly.

The other thing I also do on a yearly basis is wipe them completely, a bit drastic I know, but it gets rid of all the rubbish you pick up through the year.

I tried this on my new laptop...i had nearly wrecked it somehow by downloading alot of stuff.....and now it works absolutely fine! Thnx a million
