windows 7 ultimate 32 bit has gone slow
Hi guys,
Here you have a girl stuck with windows 7.
I have a toshiba settlite core 2 duo with 2Gb ram and 300 GB hdd. I installed a windows 7 ultimate 32 bit from scratch on it. It was working like a charm, then suddenly one day it got slower. For example, when I open a folder in GUI/Explorer or try to play some media file or open images, it takes very long (3 to 5 minutes) to proceed. sometimes it simply hangs for long. My firefox stucks and takes lots of time to open new tabs. I have AVG and I tried trendmicro too. No viruses found, I use laptop for only movies and facebook or gmail etc so don't go to any harmful sites as well.
I checked many times that task manager to see what is consuming my CPU or Physical Memory. Even sometimes CPU is used 1 percent but my laptop is dead slow.
I have no idea what to do . I tried to use IE and Opera too. I increased the Virtual Memory size too.
I even cut-paste almost 200 gb data to my external hdd and defragmented the hdd too. But no effect. I am very frustrated with this slow computer. Can anybody please help me to solve this? I do not want to reinstall windows again sob sob
please help...
