Hi guys...
My computer is taking an extremely long time to start up. It takes noticably longer and I think there is something wrong with the PC. Is there any free software I can use to look into the problema and see what is slowing it down
Thanks

remove all the junk from your desktop too as it gets cached at startup and will slow your computer down.0

Go to your favourite search website. Google works just fine. Type in "hijack this" and press enter. Follow the links.0
