When any organization acquires new computers, they expect a fast and accurate data processing unit that will not only help in the organization of the business but most importantly generate profits and revenues for the business.

This was the same as when Kasi acquired its computers several years ago. Unfortunately as the years progress, the one thing they might not have anticipated was that the PC’s would be slow as time passed which in turn affect the business. To solve the prevailing issues, reasons for their PC’s being slow and possible solutions had to be uncovered in order to prevent any further damages that in the long run might end up costing the company expenses that had not been budgeted for.

Inorder to find a solution to the problem at hand, an exercise known as trouble shooting had to be done. This is where a step by step routine check of the machine is done in order to find a solution, ensuring that every part of the PC has been checked and functions have been confirmed to be in order. This would in turn enable them to eliminate some of the obvious road blocks which could interfere with the efforts to find a solution to the slow PCs’.

Some of the reasons as to why the computer is gradually becoming slow may be due to hardware issues such as a slow processor, not enough RAM and the hard drive is either too slow or is crashing. Software issue that may make the computers slow includes having way too many items in the start up menu, unnecessary services starting automatically, viruses/Trojans/worms, security software that uses too much CPU and memory, graphic intensive desktop environment, invalid registry entries, highly fragmented hard drive, hardware problems and outdated drivers and software.

Kasi computers processor (the Central Processing Unit) is what actually performs all the work. It can calculate billions of operations per second. The
