why is my brand new Acer windows 10 running so slow
Hi there, I do not know if you have solved the problem, but I’d like to give you some suggestion. If your Windows 10 computer is running slow: 4 hardware issues should be considered
- Windows Is Running on HDD Windows running on HDD is always slower than those running on SSD, which is because magnetic head of HDD has to move here and there to read and write data while Windows on SSD can locate files very quickly due to the application of flash memory. In this case, you would want to know how to upgrade HDD to SSD without reinstalling Windows and programs, or how to migrate Windows and programs from HDD to SSD. MiniTool Partition Wizard can help you complete upgrade or system migration with ease.
- Not Enough RAM Different computers may require different types of RAM, and some computers have reached the maximum amount of memory. Therefore, users had better consult professionals before purchasing.
- CPU Is Aging or with Poor Performance When CPU of a computer has been used for a long time or is with poor performance, try replacing the old one. However, a good CPU is always quite expensive.
- Hard Disk Is Either Logically or Physically Damaged To fix this problem, users can try using Windows built-in command CHKDSK at first. Take Windows 7 for example: click Start menu, type chkdsk, and run it as administrator. Then, chkdsk.exe will check disk and fix errors automatically.
