    You may also want to consider doing a clean install to remove all of the bloatware that HP installs. While it can take a little time to do this, it will probably speed up your computer.

    Follow this link to find instructions for doing this:

    By the way, if your forum options are set to show the most recent posts first, then you will need to go post #1 on the last page of the thread.
