Control Panel

Thank you for the advice my computer is working well now. I see that my
control panel opens very slowly , I got rid of some pests and I don't have
any explanation for this control panel issue. Any suggestions would be
appreciated.

Hi,

Click start/run, type SFC /SCANNOW and click ok. You may be prompted for
your WinXP CD or the location of the I386 folder on your system. If the
prompt occurs and you don't have a CD, see:

I tried all suggestions in the article but my computer is taking forever to
open all processes and the control panel is still very slow, I have no clue
as to why these are happening. Can anyone help with these issues? Thank You .

Hi Danny,

Click start/run, type msconfig and click ok. On the general tab, select
diagnostic mode. Click apply/ok and reboot. Do things seem to work faster
now? If so, it's because there is a load of stuff in the startup group and
it's bogging down your system. See this article on using the system
configuration utility to trim it to only what's necessary:
