Does your laptop appear too slower these days ?.Do you find yourself yelling to your computer when something gets wrong?.Then this article is for you .
1.DEFRAGMENT YOUR HARDDISK.
You should defragment your harddisk .Defragging your harddisk takes your data together so that it can be easily accessed. In olden days your computer was blazing fast because it has few data that is written to nice chunks.After prolonged use data gets scattered and thus defragging helps to make them close to each other speeding your laptop.
2.CLEAN JUNK FILES .
Clearing unnecessary files help speeding up your computer .Empty your recycle bin ,clear your temp directory and wipe out other junk files from your laptop.CCleaner for Windows is a good ,little tool takes takes all the pain of making your computer faster.It is a free tool which can be downloaded from here.
3.REMOVE SPYWARE AND ADWARE
Spywares and adwares are the real speed busters of your computer .Completely eliminating them will help speeding up your computer .Personally I prefer using free softwares like Ad-Aware by Lavasoft and Spybot – Search and Destroy.
4.REPAIR YOUR REGISTRY
Registry optimization is an important factor in increasing the speed of your computer.The tool I already mentioned CCleaner is capable of doing it.

3.CCleaner
This is a free tool which has startup programs control option history and junk files clearing options etc.It can find and fix many registry errors and delete invalid shortcuts etc.But it is not as advanced as other systemwares.This is good in my experinence.It requires only a little memory.It has no memory deframentation options or something like that.As you can see it has a simple interface and its functionality is limited.
4.Iolo System Mechanic and System Shield
It is an advanced system mechanic packed in to a single software .It has all the functionalities like backing up data,deleted file recovery ,system memory optimizer etc.It comes with a heavy price tag.This is recommended for critical systems.
