Notebook has become slow

Hi all! 
I bought a laptop G6-1330sr. Was pleased with the performance is good. It took one year, and the laptop was slow. Now running windows 7 is not possible. Wanted to reinstall the system, but too long is loaded word "Start Installation" that is, hangs and nothing happens. And I can not stand turn off the computer after 30 minutes.
I think it's either a hard disk or processor warms. But from where i can check the temperature of the CPU? In the BIOS-e is not found. But in the opinion he is basking in the same as before.
I m sorry. This is my English. I m bad speak english.
This question was solved.

Hi,
I do think you will need to replace the Hard Drive as the error code and your description of the problem are all consistent with a failing drive.
Replacing the Hard Drive yourself is a pretty straight forward procedure and a brief guide on this is detailed below.
Your notebook is listed as coming with a 320Gb Hard Drive, but you can just as easily install a 750Gb HDD if you want a bit more space - the drives on the following links are just examples that would be fine for your notebook.
500Gb Hard Drive
750Gb Hard Drive.
The procedure to replace the Hard Drive starts on Page 56 of your Maintenance & Service Guide.
Once done, simply use your Recovery DVDs to reinstall the Operating System on the new drive - this procedure is described in the HP document Here.
Best regards,
DP-K

  • My Macbook pro 10.6.8 has become slow in recent days

    My Macbook pro has become slow in recent days. I have installed Macafee internet security software and not sure whether this is slowing down my system. Especially Safari has become really slow. The videos stuck, when another webpage gets loaded in another tab. The rainbow circle keeps appearing oftern in safari. The pages are very slow in response, even scrolling takes a good minute or two. The applications are taking more time to load. I admired my mac for its quick response, but snow leopard has turned into a snow turtle.

    I also finger McAffee as the culprit, it's not necessary on Mac's as of 10.6.8+ Apple installed their own anti-OS X malware detector and it checks for updates like every 26 hours or so.
    If you need to clean the Windows malware off their files, the free ClamXav does the job nicely and doesn't bugger up the machine as it's run as you need it.
    For your other slowdown issues, I suggest you look through these tips of mine, my Snow Leopard is incredibly fast.

    You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "VSearch" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    After moving all the files, restart the computer and empty the Trash.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
    Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    This unwanted program is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • My mac has become slow since installing mavericks iOS

    Since installing the Mavericks OS my Mac has become slow and unresponsive, it freezes up all of the time and I always have to wait for the different software to load once I have clicked on the icon.
    Before I installed Mavericks when I clicked on a program it opened straight away and I could use it immediatly, is any one else having this problem?
    Thank you

              MacBook - model: MacBook6,1
              1 2.26 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo CPU: 2 cores
              2 GB RAM Mavericks will run with 2 GB of RAM, but it won't run well. I know the specs say 2, but 4 is a more realistic minimum for reasonable performance. You have page-outs (see the last line of the report), which means that tasks are being paged out to your virtual memory (i.e., your hard drive), because your RAM is full. The page outs might go down if you fix some of the possible problems below, and your performance might improve; if it doesn't, you might consider putting more RAM in your Mac.

    Suggestions:
    First, make sure you have a good backup.
    What to do about the items in green:
    The items in green are third party software that may be a problem. They run all the time in the background, and thus may be making things slow. You can test this theory: try a safe boot (restart, hold down shift until you see the Apple logo). A safe boot does some diagnostic checking and then starts up without third party added-on software. If this eliminates the symptoms, then you know the problem is with a third-party item. Mac OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    I don't know if the green ones are a problem or not, but they are on the list of suspects, and you're going to need to do some research yourself.
    The general philosophy is:
    Figure out what the application is that is responsible for a particular green item.
    If you can live without the application, it, uninstall it. You should uninstall the entire application that is responsible, not just the green bit. The best way is with an uninstaller from the developer of the application. If there's no uninstaller (one of the hallmarks of crapware), then an internet search may help (as in, "uninstall crapapp mac", where crapapp is the name of the software in question). After uninstalling the app, restart, see how your symptoms are, and run Etrecheck again. I am a fan of AppZapper for uninstalling apps, if there is no uninstaller from the developer. AppZapper - The uninstaller Apple forgot.
    Sometimes, after you have run an uninstaller or manually uninstalled a suspect application, one of those green bits will still be on the Etrecheck report. If your Mac's symptoms have resolved, it's better to leave well enough alone and leave it there. If you must, you can try a modified Finder search to find the stubborn green bit and remove it. These system files do not show up in a default Finder or Spotlight Search.
    If you can't live without this app, then at least make sure it is up to date and compatible with Mavericks.
    What to do about the items in red
    These are definite problems and should be fixed if they are Apple software. They should be fixed or uninstalled if they are third party developer software.
    For red Apple items, I would try:
    repairing your hd. Boot into your recovery partition (restart, hold down ⌘R until you see the Apple logo), and use Disk Utility to repair your hard drive. Repair permissions too while you're there. OS X: About OS X Recovery Then restart, reassess performance, and rerun Etrecheck.
    If that doesn't work, I'd try Techtool, which can occasionally fix something that disk utility can't. Techtool Pro 7 Then restart, reassess performance, and rerun Etrecheck.
    If that doesn't work, I'd reinstall Mavericks over your current installation. Restart, reassess, and Etrecheck.
    If that doesn't work, you're looking at the nuclear option: backup your documents, erase your HD, and do a clean reinstall of Mavericks.
    For red non-Apple software, I'd uninstall it and then recheck with Etrecheck. Then if you must reinstall it, make sure it's up to date and compatible with Mavericks.

  • Os8 and ipad2 has become slow

    Since upgrading my  ipad2 to os8 it has become slow and unresponsive, is this going to be fixed.

    The hope is that IOS 8.1.1 which is now in beta will improve the performance issues we are now encountering. 

  • Firefox has become slower since i downloaded latest one

    Since I have download latest firefox it has become slower than before, why is this please?

    this is total bullshit. so frustrated with this nonsense.

  • IMac has become slow and freezes up

    For a few months now my iMac has been much slower than it used to be. Apps take longer to open, menu functions respond more slowly, folders and files take longer to open, pages longer to display, etc. Frequently the active window freezes and the colour wheel starts spinning for 10-15 seconds (it has been doing it twice since I started writing this sentence). This happens with all apps I am using, like Safari, Mail, Word and Excel, but particularly frequently in Logic Pro X. Sometimes when it happens (but not always), I get the error message "Disk too slow or system overload (-10010)". However, I upgraded to Logic Pro X about a year ago, and I never had this problem during the first number of months after the upgrade. I am aware that Logic uses a lot of CPU and memory, but, as mentioned, I also have the problem when Logic is not running. This leads me to think there might be something with the hard disk, although it beats me why it suddenly should have become slow. I am currently running everything from the built-in 1 TB hard disk. I have a 3.1 GHz Intel Core i5 CPU and 8 GB RAM. A full EtreCheck report with my system specifics is enclosed below. Can anyone help?

    1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
    Don't be put off by the complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
    2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
    There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
    3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can act on it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
    You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
    In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
    You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
    Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
    4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
    ☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
    ☞ Paste into the window of another application.
    ☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
    ☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
    The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
    5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
    6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
    7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
    8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
    9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
    exec bash
    and press return. Then paste the script again.
    10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return  three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
    If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
    11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
    [Process completed]
    to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
    12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
    At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
    If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
    13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
    14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

  • IPhone has become slow

    My iPhone 4 has become very slow in the last few months.  I know it's 3G but this is really bad!!!  Anyone else experiencing the same slowness?

    Standard troubleshooting...
    Try a reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo, ignoring the slider. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    If still a problem restore from your backup.
    If still a problem restore as new, i.e. without your backup.
    If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

  • My Macbook Pro has become slow

    10.6.7
    Model Name:          MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacBookPro4,1
      Processor Name:          Intel Core 2 Duo
      Processor Speed:          2.4 GHz
      Number Of Processors:          1

    Recently my Macbook Pro has become sort of lagging. The lagging is sort of intermittent, but is possibly becoming more frequent. Sometimes when I type, it takes a while to catch up and gives me the rainbow wheel mouse while this happens. I have been getting the rainbow wheel thing a lot lately due to lagging in typing or clicking a link and it takes (seemingly) forever to load (based on how fast it used to be). Sometimes when I scroll using the trackpad (my main method of scrolling), it takes a while to actually scroll. When I open a new tab, what should be my top sites sometimes is a distorted/pixelated picture of black or black and white or whatever was on the screen previously. I am also having a lot of flash problems: I'll be using the internet and then randomly the flash will just close and I'll get an apple pop-up saying that my flash program unexpectedly closed and I should send a report to apple. I refresh the page and the flash is working fine, but the closing will still randomly happen. I use my macbook pro mainly for internet use and microsoft office use since I am a student. This only started recently and I haven't used any microsoft office products since before this started so I have really just been using Safari (it's been a while since I've used firefox also). Therefore, I don't believe an application is causing this. As I am typing this, I ran a software update and found that 10.6.8 is available. I think I will hold off until I get a few responses on this discussion. This computer is JUST over three years (my extended warranty just ran out... of course).
    Thank you for reading my post. I greatly appreciate any help I can receive.

    Check the status of your browser plug-ins here and update.

    Use Firefox, it's faster and more secure browser with tons of great add-ons.
    Use the free LibreOffice, it will read all your OfficeMac files, is better written than Microsoft's buggy stuff, more secure too.

  • Firefox has become slow and bloated.

    Since using the add-ons my once elegantly swift Firefox has become nonreactive and the height of the toolbars, bookmarks and the rest takes up too much space over the screen.

    It's neither, it's using the "add a keyword for this search" button that appears in the context menu of most in-page search fields. This creates a bookmark with the place in the GET request where the query should be replaced with %s.
    I've imported both of those files into my new profile, and the bookmarks do indeed get imported, but the keywords do not, so I can't use them to search.
