laptop freezes

Comment:

my laptop takes a long time to start-up and applications run very slowly. Sometimes, switching between Windows takes several seconds and the mouse may freeze for seconds too.

Download Diskeeper Free Trial (diskeeper.com). Do an antispyware scan. Perform a virus scan. Remove any programs you don't need. Check for resource hogs. HTH. -Andrew
