My Presario S6300NX with Windows XP Slow Operation

When I turn my computer on, it takes at least 7 to 10 minutes before the
Windows XP page opens.  Then it takes another 5-minutes beore Internet Explorer
will open.  Additionally, the systems seems to lock up where its just churning but
never gets to the page or action it's suppose to do.  I usually have to unplug the
computer to shut it off.  Can you offer suggestions/recommendations to speed
the computer up?

Here are the specs for your Compaq Presario S6300NX Desktop Computer. Your computer is about 8 1/2 years... there is a number of thing that could cause the computer to run slow. Your hard drive could be getting full or going bad. The Windows XP registry file could be excessively large and/or contain many errors. I would perform a HP Recovery to return the system to a factory like state and go from there.

  • Is suite 4 compatible with windows 8.1 operating system

    is suite 4 compatible with windows 8.1 operating system

    Hi Mylenium,
    thankx for your reply! My problem is, that I can not test it because I want to buy a new PC which will have Win 8. If the installation fails, it is too late and I would have bought better an old used PC with Win XP.
    So are there any other users who had the same Problem? I mean Win 8 is everywhere the same Win 8 and Adobe Creative Suite CS 4 too...
    What do you mean by "configuration in Win 8 for compatibility modes, enabling legacy drivers"
    Are there specials drivers, Adobe offers? Is it very complicated? I am not a computer expert, just a hobby filmmaker with good knowledge in Adobe Premiere CS4.
    Thanks again for replies!

  • HP LaserJet M1120 MFP will not print on wireless network with Windows 8.1 operating system

    The printer worked on the wireless network with Windows 8.
    I have been advised that it does not work with windows 8.1 because a driver is required. However this is not available to download.
    It is ridiculous that by having the latest operating system I am unable to use the HP printer on the wireless network
    When will HP have the driver to download?

    Check the support site here.

  • Does Photoshop Elements 11  function with Windows 8.1 operation system? How to get it properly installed?

    I have a problem with Photoshop Elements 11, which i bought last week. Installing was completed according the instructions. When I started to use the program my one year old HP-computer with Windows 8.1 informed that there a failure in the Photoshop program and the did not open.

  • Shared file from computer with Windows 7 slow to open and save on computer with Windows 8.1

    I have three computers in homegroup. They can see each other and sharing files is not a problem. Main computer, where I have all my data on uses Windows 7 Home premium, and Office 2007. Both other computers use latest version Windows 8.1, Office 2010. I
    use these two computers to access files on main computer (word, excel). I have problems, because when I try to open word and excel files on these two other computers, files open very slow (green bar is showing, although word has no text inside), and also saves
    very slow - empty word file takes 1 minute for saving.
    One of computers with 8.1 had 8 before updating and I managed to solve this problem with running this protocol (smb.bat) - this solved the problem, although I do not really understand why:
    sc config lanmanworkstation depend= bowser/mrxsmb10/nsi
    sc config mrxsmb20 start= disabled
    So it seems it is really something to do with the version of windows since the same computer had windows 8 and this protocol and worked well, but when updated to 8.1 it works slowly (I tried this protocol, but it is not working)
    Please see if there is any solution (updated protocol?) because I really cannot wait for word file to open 1 minute.
    Thank you for help!

    Hi,
    First, You can leave the homegroup and join again to see the result.
    To leave a homegroup:
    1.Open HomeGroup by typing homegroup in the search box, and then clicking HomeGroup.
    2.Click Leave the homegroup.
    3.Click Leave the homegroup, and then click Finish.
    You can also join the homegroup in the way accordingly.
    Besides, this happens after a upgrade to Windows 8.1, this also might be caused by service conflict, I suggest to perform a clean boot to solve this:
    1.Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search. Or, if you are using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, and then click Search.
    2.Type msconfig in the search box, and then tap or click msconfig.
    3.On the Services tab of the System Configuration dialog box, tap or click to select the Hide all Microsoft services check box, and then tap or click Disable all.
    4.On the Startup tab of the System Configuration dialog box, tap or click Open Task Manager.
    5.On the Startup tab in Task Manager, for each startup item, select the item and then click Disable.

  • Portable Hard drive formating for use with windows and mac operating system

    Just bought a verbatim sure fire 500g 800 firewire portable hard drive for my new macbook pro. I have not did bootcamp yet because I am deciding on wether to use Vista or the new windows 7 that will be coming out soon. The drive is already formated HFS+, how do I format the drive so I can write both windows and mac files to it. Help!!!

    how do I format the drive so I can write both windows and mac files to it.
    Either format it to MS-DOS from the DIsk Utility, or install a tool such as MacDrive into Windows and keep the drive in its current format, or install the NTFS-3G driver into Mac OS X and format the drive to NTFS in Windows.

  • Why isn't itunes 11.1.3 installing on my new VAIO laptop with windows 8.1 (64 bit)?

    I am trying to install itunes on my new VAIO laptop 64 bit with Windows 8.1 operating system. At the end of the installation, as soon as itunes is trying to open, an error message comes up, saying "an error has caused the program to stop running." I tried the compatibility troubleshoot, it says "incompatible program". Does that mean, even latest version of itunes can not run on windows 8.1? If there is any solution, please advise. By the way, I have tried to run it on compatibility mode for windows 7 , windows vista etc, no luck.  Thank you.

  • HP Laserjet p2015d auto duplex printing with Windows 7 64 bit operating system

    I have used the HP Laserjet p2015d with Windows 7 32 bit operating system and have been able to use the AUTOMATIC DUPLEX feature of the printer without problems.
    Now, however, I have installed the 64 bit version of Windows 7 operating system and the AUTO DUPLEX does not work and is not shown as being available on the PROPERTIES menu of the printer.
    Is it possible to use the AUTO DUPLEX  feature of  the printer with Windows 7   64 bit  operating system.
    All replies welcomed!   Aaron in Calif.

    Hi Aaron,
    Make sure the Automatic Duplexing option is enabled:
    Enter Control Panel > Devices and Printers.
    Right click the printer icon, then click Printer Properties.
    Click the Device Settings tab.
    Set the Automatic Two-Sided Duplex Accessory as installed and click OK to save the change.
    Now Automatic Duplexing should become available.
