The answer depends -- I am guessing we are talking Windows PCs and if this is a NEW computer (less than 3 months old) I would have a complete virus and malware check done to make sure it hasn't become infected.

If, on the other hand, this is a recent system less than 1 year old - then defragmenting the hard drive; relocating the paging file to another hard drive; performing general housekeeping on the system should provide a noticeable performance increase.

If the system is older than 1 year and/or has less than 2GB of RAM; you might want to consider purchasing a newer systemor at least getting more memory -- PCs are getting better and cheaper all the time.
