Please Help me! Thanks

Also, go to start > run > msconfig, and give me a rough estimate of how many items you have checked in there....for instance, on my machine, I have around 10, 2 of which are AV.....if you have more than, say, 40, that could easily slowing your system down.

The next thing we'll check is malware, but let's go one step at a time. Otherwise I get confused easily.
