Hello Pranav,
I am using Dell Vostro 1015 with 2.1 ghz processor and 2 gb RAM. I use Jaws
14 and eset nod32 antifirus.
I was also using windows 7 for last three years and enjoyed its speed and
some interesting features. But the most disturbing thing was, at least in my
case, when I had to force shut down, jaws stopped first. So there was no way
to know if any other programme was running.
Anyway, I have reinstalled indows xp sp3 this morning. The OS only and jaws
and the graphics driver. i am thinking of continuing with it for some time.
Can you suggest which junks are running by a Dell machine? How can I find
and stop them?
With best Regards,
Amiyo Biswas

Hi Amiyo,
1. What are the specifications of the laptop?
2. Down grading to Windows XP is not a good option since it is no longer
supported by Microsoft.
3. What screen reader are you using?
4. What anti-malware applications are you using?
Many laptops have a lot of junk running on them by default which has to be
uninstalled or at least stopped from starting up at boot time. A chkdsk
will
usually not help in an increase in speed.
