Hi. Are used to have this program when I had a laptop and it didn't really make
much difference to the speed and performance now I just get by with a phone
and tablet.

Hi Mo.
You're most welcome, the key advantages these software tools have is
automated routine maintenance which in many cases can prevent problems from
occurring before they cause serious inconveniences. I also factor in that of
all the many different tool sets I have tested, these are the most
comprehensive options that work well enough with screen readers to offer a
modicum of functionality that is usable. Both AVG and System Mechanic have a
webpage like interface so you can do routine maintenance without too much
difficulty.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Ibrahim. Many thanks for the clarification, this is extremely
helpful! i've never been a huge fan of AVG products but will have to
give both of these a try.
cheers,
Mo.

Hi Mo.
Iolo and AVG products aren't free sadly, however they do offer free limited
editions which have the core functionality you need. Iolo offers a basic
version of its System Mechanic tool here:
http://www.iolo.com/landing/smfree/
You can also download a fully functional 30 day free trial from their
website, so you can decide if the program is right for you. AVG offers PC
Performance which also has a free version:
http://www.avg.com/gb-en/performance
which is a stripped down version of their PC Tune-UP suite but which has the
basics. In any case, you can use these tools to fix the most common pesky
system issues and they will give you an overview of the problems detected
before you are committed to any repairs.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hello Petrina.
As suggested by Ibrahim, you could try running a system maintenance tool
but often these are paid. I'd recommend running something like C Cleaner
if the
other 2 he recommends are not free. doing a system file scan as
suggested by me previously wouldn't make much difference. Also, it may
not be necessary
to do a virus check on your machine. Some machines that have an AMD
processor for example are useless for running windows and speech. What
make/model of
laptop is it? it may need a memory upgrade. Finally, I'd be more than
happy to do a health check remotely for you. I would check all your
installed programs,
optimise settings for accessibility, disable unwanted startup programs
and perform a registry clean as well as a full disk clean. I'd also
teach you as
we go a long how to do the scans your self. Its well worth doing a
health check every now and again as windows can get so bogged down over
time. Let us know how it goes.
all the best,
Mo.

Hi Mo,
Not sure if this is down to the damaged system files. But sometimes when I
am using Microsoft word, I get the message that Microsoft word is not
responding, and the same with Windows live mail, and also sometimes when I
open up a folder, and arrow up and down, or press a letter to get to a
folder or file. And also sometimes even Window-eyes stops responding. I
have got one hell of a screwed up laptop.
All the best
Petrina

Hello Petrina.
Are you experiencing specific errors? If so, letting us know what the
errors are and when they appear could help us to diagnose your issue.
Alternatively, insert a windows7 DVD in to your DVD drive and press windows
R for run. type cmd and press enter. finally, type "sfc /scannow" without
the quotes and your system files should be checked using the DVD. if you've
been affected by a virus, it could mean a windows reinstall.
hope that helps,
Mo.
