My computer getting slow, need help
I have core 2 duo system, with 2gb ram. but now day it become slow, my hard disk makes sound sound inside. Please, give solutions..
First thing first: please mentioned the OS you are running. If it's Vista or Windows-7, then do a disk analysis and see the status. I most cases a de-fragmentation should solve the problem
Otherwise, you can always do an analysis of programs and processes running from the task manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC) and uninstall those unnecessary programs.
I agree with a2aoptima. see the hub written about how to speedup your computer. http://inter22.hubpages.com/hub/ComputerSpeedUp

Ok you didn't mention which OS you have, which would help. It could be a number of things to why your computer is or as become slow. My first thoughts are Virus or Malware so a scan would be may first port of call to do to see what is happening. Also de-fraging your computer often is also a good idea this will help your computer find files on your hard drive much faster.
Here a link to one of my Hubs http://arren123.hubpages.com/hub/Computer-Health
I hope this helps you with your computer problems
It might be worth trying CCleaner, I also agree with the idea of Disk Defrag-ing, though.
My OS is windows 7, whenever I'm using system the processor usage shows 100% even in ideal condition (no any application running).
