i clicked start, search ,typed in programs, after awhile it started listing programs. ended up with 1971 program files. some where in blue text, do you know what blue text means?What did you use to determine you had 1971 files? Just because you have this many files does not mean they are all programs.
If you have a lot of programs starting up, it will be slow.
If you have a fragmented drive, it will be slow.
If you have a lot of temp files so it will be slow.
If you are low on ram, it will be slow.
So using the guide will help. What do you have in your msconfig?
How much ram do you have?
When was the last time you defragmented the drive?
