You can only keep one anti-virus... You'll now have to uninstall the other two,, Cancel some startup options & restart..

Run : msconfig.exe (startup tab)

Run: cmd "then" sfc /scannow

What does it give you,,

The best way for uninstalling the Anti-virus would be with the removeltools for them.. Can be found on their site..(Norton's & Kaspersky's)

Your running the minimum spec of memory for the windows,upgrading your RAM would be a good idea.;)

But for now even with anti-virus managing software more than 1 anti-virus seems to be your prob here.

Keep 1 & if your worried about spam & others.. Download & install malwarebytes anti-malware

change your anti virus... go for eset..

then use tune up utilities,

use autoruns to disable unused services, and unused start up programs :cool:

I'd recommend to maintain your computer get theres programs
CCleaner- cleans all the garbage you don't need as well as deleting old system restores
Defraggler- Disk defrag app. you can use which ever one you'd like however regardless it's good to maintatin your
system
Malwarebytes- Good program to coinside with your AV
Also Note if any problems persist don't be afraid to format your hdd and do a fresh install of windows do that should bring back your system up to normal speeds again
Good Luck
Jose
