Solve : Very slow XP Home uploading?

Answer»

:'(My XP Home is VERY slow when UPLOADING whatever program, internet, e-mail I'm starting.
I've run "msconfig", subscribed to "registry mechanic" and taken away 1.600 more or less significant errors.
Furthermore I've made defragmentation and run "cleanup manager and used "MY Computer" - "Properties" - "Advanced" - "Performance" - "Settings" - " "Visual effects" - "adjust for best performance" - "OK" but there is no improvement. Scanning with Norman anti virus program - I'm clean.
I've been told that my hard drive might be corrupt but before bying a new one I would like to be adviced from other sources as well. My present HD is occupied up to only 20%.
My computer works the entire time with a very noisy, irritating sound, like someone dragging chains.
PLEASE, ADVICE ME! FIRST what are the specs of your computer? ram, cpu speed drive sizeMy RAM is 512, your other questions I don't even know what it is - sorry.Quote from: njmvimnom on April 29, 2008, 07:21:32 AM

My RAM is 512, your other questions I don't even know what it is - sorry.
Click on start, Right click computer, click properties and on bottom of page there is needed info. Thank you for your help. There is a text saying: Hewlett-Packard-Pavilion AMD Atlon [m] XP 3000+
216 GHz, 512 MB RAM

I hope this will help you help meI don't like the description of that sound...you should remove a side panel and try and determine the source.
Check first of all to make sure all fans are operating properly.
Does there seem to be any other errant behaviour such as freezes or lockups ?There indeed are lockups and freezes If the noise is coming from the hard drive, then back up your stuff and have the drive replaced as it's getting ready to go south.

Alan <>< Hello all supporters to my question, I don't know if I dare ask you once more. How should I do to back up my hard disc?Read this: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/320820Have you opened the case yet to see what's amiss inside ? ?
If that noise is the CPU or Vid Card fan you risk burning them up.
Finding out what's making the noise should be the priority right now.
If you haven't DONE this before possibly a friend who has can assist ? ?
I'm very grateful to all your help and participation in this matter.
I've copied what I hope will be enough for you to help me.
Regards
