Computer Extremely Slow = Maintenance Needed - If your computer is extremely slow then try to clean up and organize your hard drive. For this you could use either or both of two great tools from Windows (Disk Cleanup Utility, Disk Defragmentation utility).

Both can be accessed using the menu path below:

Start Menu > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools.          

Disk Cleanup Utility - Disk Cleanup helps free up space on your hard  drive. Disk Cleanup searches your drive, and then shows you temporary files, Internet cache files, and unnecessary program files that you can safely delete. You can direct Disk Cleanup to delete some or all of those files. The Disk Cleanup utility deletes many unnecessary and temporary files from your machine. This frees up space on the hard drive and your computer will run faster as a result.

Disk Defragmentation Utility - This utility can also be found in your System Tools folder, and its purpose is to reduce the amount of fragmentation on the hard disk. It does this, by physically organizing the content of the disk to store the pieces of each file close together and contiguously. It also attempts to create larger regions of free space using compaction and so that your computer can find information on the hard drive faster.
