Understanding why your computer is running slow

Computer, when running slow, is very disgusting. It is because it makes us wait and people usually don’t like waiting. There are actually reasons why a computer runs slowly. In this post I will discuss to you the main reasons why a computer runs slowly.

Start-up Programs have a big impact in the speed of the computer. It is a fact that a person would not easily move if he is carrying big heavy bags. So it is like computer. Having too many start-up programs would make the computer slow. (Check my other post to learn how to disable start-up programs.)
One of the factor that makes a computer slow is the number of running program. For example, you are using Mozilla firefox while using Adobe Photoshop and Microsoft Word. So in this case, the computer will run slowly if you have a less memory RAM. RAM is a part of the computer which support the activity of the computer. It is like the heartin which you cannot turn on a computer without a RAM. There are many varies sizes of RAM and version. Nowadays, 1GB up to 8GB is available worldwide. A computer can support two RAM at a time. Depending on the manufacturer of your Motherboard some computer can support only the 2GB per slot. So if you have two 2GB slot, then you’re computer can support up to 4GB.

Some manufacturer of Motherboard supports 8GB. Meaning each slot can support up to 4GB per slot. The RAM differs on it’s version and capability. The RAM created on the 90’s are slower compare to the current version. It is recommended for the person to buy the new computer versions. The current versions of RAM are SDRAM, DDR1, DDR2, DDR3 and DDR4 in the future. The Version and the capacity of the RAM depend on what motherboard you have and how strong is your CPU.

Virus and Malware also contributes a lot in making a computer slow. It is highly recommended for you to INSTALL a computer anti-virus which are strong enough to protect your computer. A virus affects the speed, for a fact that it makes different errors in the SYSTEM of a computer. Some viruses, connects also in the internet causing the slowness of the internet connection and the computer performance.
