>I am trying to figure out why my laptop is running so slowly. I opened Task Manager and there are 44 processes running. I have no applications open.
>
>15 of the processes are listed under my login. 2 Local services and 4 network services. 23 of the processes are listed under System.
>
>Now I find it hard to beleive that simply starting my PC would require 44 processes to start and be running. Anyone wanna suggest a course of action? I have no idea what's required and what isn't.
