1414434	2016-01-14 22:18:00	Ok, here is the report from Chkdsk which doesn't mean much to me. 6910 And here is the results of the HDD check which doesn't seem to report anything drastic either????? 6911 The plot thickens and I'm none the wiser as to what was slowing things down. :(	B.M. (505)
1414435	2016-01-14 22:25:00	There are no hardware errors there, just a minor file system cleanup. It's still likely just the lack of space and fragmentation if you haven't managed to do that still. I don't find fragmentation has much effect on performance myself though, but when it does it's normally on older hardware like you are using. Another tack maybe, what's te last thing that might have happened before you noticed the slowdown? Install something?, windows updates?, something else. Trying to retrieve such details from organic memory storage can be tricky of course.	dugimodo (138)
1414436	2016-01-15 15:03:00	What does the rest of the smart data say? powered on hours etc	apsattv (7406)
1414437	2016-01-16 00:17:00	What does the rest of the smart data say? powered on hours etc Right down the bottom of the screenshot under Information apsattv. Switched on 2631 times 22284 hrs uptime Also ran sfc /scannow but don't know if it found anything or not? Where do I find that log?	B.M. (505)
1414438	2016-01-17 14:11:00	Try again but use crystaldiskinfo it gives more data crystalmark.info	apsattv (7406)
1414439	2016-01-17 19:14:00	Also ran sfc /scannow but don't know if it found anything or not? Where do I find that log? It tells you when it is finished BM in the command box you started sfc /scannow in.	CliveM (6007)
1414440	2016-01-17 19:51:00	Try again but use crystaldiskinfo it gives more data crystalmark.info Well I understand the Good bit and the Temp but the rest is googligook to me. :confused: :)

1414442	2016-01-17 20:18:00	You have three problems that will cause slowness. 1. If the HDD is to full its got no room to move, hence runs slow. 2. System bloat - Basically over time the system gets slower and slower, caused by corrupt and damaged files, general usage. - Only solution, as PCTek mentioned, reinstall. 3. Windows XP its self. Microsoft Killed XP, when doing updates over time they caused slowness, so unless your computer has a load of power to spare it WILL slow down. The updates caused performance hits - MS dont care as they wanted XP gone. If you dont believe me you can do a simple test. ( even on another HDD) install XP from fresh, install drivers, watch how fast it is :) NOW run all the updates, watch it come to a screaming halt performance wise. :( AND this is without any data, programs etc.	wainuitech (129)
