Remember when you first bought your computer? It was snappy, opened apps instantly, and booted up in seconds. Now, you have time to make a coffee while it turns on. Sluggish performance is the #1 complaint we hear from PC users in Surat.
The good news? You don't necessarily need a new computer. Most slow PCs can be made faster than when they were new with the right upgrades.
Common Symptoms
- Slow Boot Time: Taking more than 2 minutes to reach the desktop.
- Laggy Typing: Letters appear seconds after you press keys.
- Freezing/Hanging: "Not Responding" errors when opening Chrome or Word.
- High Disk Usage: Task manager shows 100% disk usage constantly.
Top Causes
- Using an HDD (Hard Disk Drive): Old spinning drives are the biggest bottleneck in modern computers. Even a superfast i7 processor will be slow with an HDD.
- Not Enough RAM: If you have 4GB or less, your computer struggles to multitask, forcing it to use the slow hard drive as temporary memory.
- Too Many Startup Apps: Do you really need Spotify, Skype, and Steam to open every time you turn on your PC?
- Dust & Overheating: If the CPU gets too hot, it intentionally slows down (throttles) to prevent burning out.
The Magic Fix: SSD Upgrade
The single best upgrade: Replacing your old HDD with a Solid State Drive (SSD) makes your computer 10x faster immediately. It's the most cost-effective way to revive an old laptop.
DIY Tips to Try
- Disable Startup Apps: Open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc), go to the "Startup" tab, and disable apps you don't need immediately.
- Uninstall Bloatware: Remove pre-installed antivirus trials and games you never play.
- Disk Cleanup: Use Windows "Disk Cleanup" tool to remove temporary files.
