It's been acting up recently, I use the following daily to keep it as clean as possible.

Malwarebytes
CCleaner
Defragmenter
Disk Cleanup
Microsoft Security Essentials

There was another program I used to use that worked, but sadly I don't remember the name of it. I would just reinstall the blasted thing, but for some reason keeps running into errors when I attempt to do so. I don't trust it enough to do this whole "Install without a disk" thing.

The following are my specs and information. [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] & [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

If you know any information on how I could maybe reinstall everything, I'd be happy to hear it, until then, anything that'll speed this thing up would be awesome.

if it's slow for start-up then type in msconfig in run and disable a few unnecessary start-up items

You could also try restoring your laptop to factory settings. Make sure to back up any inportant files before doing so.

I can't. As stated, there is an error everytime I try to. I would have done it a long time ago, but it refuses to do so.
