There is loads of things to do to make your computer running faster..
First of, have you made sure you have all critical Windows updates.. Optional updates which would help?
Run at least Disk Cleanup and Defrag..

Check for driver updates, eg; video card, sound card, etc.

Uninstall programs which you don't use - manually delete the folders.

Download & install;
Clean Up

Download and install EasyCleaner:

After installing it check under Settings > Registry tab if the backup
option is checked and if the directory it points to exists.
This should be true by default, but check anyway.

Then click OK and click Registry
Then click Search. When it is done select all the items per color,
(most, if not all should be green) and click Remove.

Run CleanUp! and reboot.

Open the case and clean things out with compressed air, since there might be dust--

You could also update your applications - browsers - anything you use.
Post back & let us know how you get on ;)
