I have a HP Pavillion a1623w with XP Pro. It's about 4 years old and needs a good cleaning. I'm just not sure where to start off. I am running AVG and it has been recently detecting viruses and sending them to the virus vault. I have also been having a problem with my external USB Maxtor drive showing in the "My computer" so I can't properly back up my files.

I was going to use a registry cleaner as well. However, I have read good and bad about doing this.

Any suggestions about where to start so that I don't make a bad situation worse.
