    Default Computer Running Slow

    Okay so all of a sudden my computer has been running slow, I ran Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware in safe mode and in normal mode, but nothing came up. Any know what else I can do to speed up my computer because it just recently started going slow.

    Yeah I can "find" them lol. Run all those in Smart Mode in that order? (Smitfraud, malwarebyts, superantispyware, and then ad-aware)?

    The built in WinXP defragger sucks but the Vista one is good. If you don't mind poking around in your registry I can tell you a way you can make Windows start up faster. Extra RAM helps too.

    Gone are the days where i can defrag b/c i'm running a SSD. I think i'm suppose to run some sort of wiper tool from the reading i'm gathering. SSD does rock...though.

    Ram really does help up. My buddies boss upgraded his ram in a laptop to 2gig and it ran much smoother.
