The longer computer used, the more software installed, garbage inside the computer registry will be more, and most of the software will add unnecessary junk to the registry and system, they occupy much space of hard drive, when computer start up, much boot file and program need to read and load, which makes the computer crash or slower and slower. So to make computer run fast, you should install less software and often clean up system, only allow default system program loading when start up.

To clean up system /registry garbage and unnecessary junk files, you can use registry cleaner software

It may depend on your processor speed or maybe its just some problems in your computer. Minimal space in your windows drive may slow your computer's performance. Other reasons may include viruses, they are known for slowing down computer speed.

It depends:

  • Sometimes there is nothing really wrong and the computer is just slow.
  • Sometimes it means your network is not plugged in and the computer waits about 45 seconds or so before it times out.
  • It could mean you recently installed incompatible hardware. Some BIOSes have problems with certain ATI video cards. Changing the video card or updating the system BIOS can sometimes fix this.
  • If it comes up sometimes and not others, failing components such as the power supply, memory, and/or hard drive can cause this.
  • Taking longer to boot sometimes than others, with occasions that it won't boot at all could indicate a failing hard drive. The first thing to do is get the manufacturer's hard drive test utility and follow its instructions. If the results say to return the drive, then you should back up as much of your data as you can immediately.
  • Ultra-DMA problems can be another cause. Once Windows encounters so many disk errors, it reverts ATA devices to the slower PIO mode. A failing hard drive can cause this, but so can inserting a bunch of bad CDs and DVDs. Once you fix the problem, Windows persists in using PIO mode, so you have to edit the registry or use a Ultra-DMA mode reset utility.
  • Assuming the hardware is in good shape, and the problem is just in the operating system, you should scan for spyware, viruses, other malware, unpopular software, and excessive start-up applications.

First thing is go to system preferences click startup disk and click on Mac OSx and restart it there. Also I would recommend you repair disc permissions on your iMac. Make sure there is no other hardware or video game console connected to your iMac. Disconnect everything but the mouse and keyboard. A printer may be causing the problem. Another thing is you may have too many things running at startup. Open System Preferences and click User & Groups or Accounts. Click the Login Items and hide any application that are not needed at startup.
