Assistance with Fujitsu Lifebook "A" Series

[Chivas]

Probably 4 out of 5 times upon booting up its taking around 15 minutes to "settle down" and allow the opening of any of the Browsers.

Once they do open the Laptop runs at usual speed,

There is Advanced system care on laptop along with Adware and Malabtyes software

No problem with memory or size of Hard drive

Any suggestions. Its electric quick as always once running. Its about 3 Years old

Which browser are you using? I've had similar problems with Chrome off and on the past 4 months. I'm on True ADSL (Bangkok) and sometimes get weird pop-up messages like "The server threw an exception" and several others I cant recall the text of but they apparently have to do with the way Chrome and True handle multiple users and ip addresses within the system.

I'm not saying it will necessarily solve the problem, but you could try installing Soluto and letting it analyse your startup.

You can always uninstall it once you've had a look.

Create a Restore point first in case you inadvertently make any changes.

Normally Firefox but not exclusively

Didn't tell you what's taking time on startup?

Maybe try this one:

Use Windows Task Manager to see what processes/apps are gobbling up your computer resources such as CPU, RAM, etc. Press the Cntl-Alt-Delete key combo, select Task Manager, Processes, and then click the column headings to sort the resources usage....like clicking the CPU heading will sort the processes/apps which are using you CPU....see if one or more are using a bunch of CPU percentage...do the same for Memory, but the CPU usage will probably be your key indicator...see which programs/processes is sapping the most horsepower from your CPU.

Not sure why but this morning after your 2 links he has started promptly. As it wasnt happening all the time initially I rebooted again and again started promptly.

Hopefully one of those 2 have done the job so thanks indeed

I suspect it's the former.

But I didn't realise it now does it automagically.

Still, all's well that end's well.

Yes I've shut town and reopened 4 times seems to be A1 now thanks

It does make me wonder what exactly was in your startup to slow everything down so much.

I would scan it with something like Spybot Search & Destroy, or Adaware Free.

Again you can remove them after you've used them.
