hey
for the last few months my laptop has been acting slow. things work fine when i first turn my computer on, but after about an hour or so programs start acting slower like the internet, paintshop etc .
at first i thought it was a virus/spyware etc and downloaded a few programs but they found nothin, i also disabled programs from startin up when i turn the laptop on but this hasnt helped 😞
my laptop is the pcg-k315s
any help would be great as im ready to throw this thing against a brick wall
cheers
Hi and welcome to the forum.
There is the possibility that a program or service is corrupted and taking up CPU usage. To check this out open Device Manager (Ctrl + Alt + Del) and on the Processes tab click the CPU field twice, so that the highest CPU usage is listed first. Ignore System Idle Process, but then see what is using CPU by more than a few %.
hey thanx for the reply
theres no programs running over 1% but there are few running at this %, even when i have no programs open apart from taskmanager. stuff like explorer.exe, lsass.exe, apoint.exe, apntex.exe
any ideas?
Is your laptop overheating at all?
Is your hard drive memory nearly full?

Have you checked whether you have an power profile running under AC / plugged in settings?
IF you laptop has a "mobile" processor, you can set power profiles to help with extending battery life.
Possibly your settings have the CPU running "battery life" instead of PERFORMANCE.
Worth a look
dont think so, seams as normal as it ever was
how do you find this out?
hey
i downloaded the program, and my temprature is 75.0c
my drive is:
18.6 GB capacity
8.96 GB used space
9.65 GB free space
i downloaded the program, and my temprature is 75.0c
that was the temp after about an hour of having my laptop on. at boot the temp is 60c.
if that makes any difference.
