| 1238334 | 2011-10-18 21:52:00 | Recently i have noticed , the performance of my HP DV6 Laptop has down slightly , say for e.g . when i got this pc , the whole system took only 20 seconds to loaded but now it takes about 30 seconds for loading up and shutdown down . Some specifications of laptop are ; - 4GM - 2.00 i7 Processor -Windows 7 ,64 bit -AVG free edition but i have recently downloaded norton 360 beta 6.0 just for trial - CC Cleaner So there you go , i have tried to use cc cleaner to do registry clean up and and for normal clean up of unused files , plus used avg and norton to scan for viruses and pc tuneup , norton did seem to help me just a bit but still performance is still down . I also have about 63 programs on my laptop. Thats about 2.70 GB which my system tells What changes you think i should make ? |

Perhaps a change to your expectations ( only kidding ) :) You are worried about a 10sec increase to startup/shutdown :banana Every extra program, printer, AV, etc etc can increase startup times. I think most would be happy with 30sec startup time , 30sec to load win ??, seems quite fast.... The HP's have all sorts of preloaded crap (yes crap ie Alot toolbar, demo versions of software etc etc etc) A cleanout of installed programs is the 1st step Cheers |
