you haven't given any type of information as to what your computer is...

like manufacturer, CPU, brand of Hard Disk (HDD), etc...

at the very least (assuming you are running some flavor of windows) run chkdsk to see if there are any errors on your HDD, then defragment it afterwards...

to run chkdsk:
start>run then type in: chkdsk C: /f

you will find that it can't do it, but will ask if you want to run it the next time you boot up your machine...type Y (for yes) then hit enter...the next time you restart your HDD will be checked for errors...

to defragment:

start>control panel>administrative tools>computer management

hit the defragment button and let it run...


then see if this makes your stuff run better...
