Help My Laptop Is Slow by Smithwesson7(op):
I got this laptop from a relative who reside abroad. She has used it before, got a new one and stored away this one for a while until i requested for a laptop.
It is a compaq presario cq 57. It runs on window 10.
It is quite slow and i am worried. Anything i can do to help.

I am not computet savvy.
Your advice is much appreciated



Just noticed the battery doesn't last

Due to the Ram and hdd capacity of the system, window 10 might make it run slow, so degrade it back to window 7 and see how it works.

update

I took the laptop for fixing and it was discovered the hard disc is bad. It was replaced and issue solved.
