Shane:
lol, yes but I mean how often do you do it?

Every night when your done, every few days, weeks or do you leave it on all the time.

Also when was the last time you did a power drain on the hardware?

(Step 2) Once the computer is powered off, unplug the power cord. If it is a laptop also remove the battery. It is important that any way for the system to keep getting power is unplugged or unhooked.

(Step 3) With the power cord unplugged and the battery removed (if you have one), hit the power button a few times as if you are trying to turn on the computer. When you do this and the computer tries to turn on, all the electricity is drained out of the system.

(Step 4) Plug the power cord back in and reinsert the battery (if you have one) and turn the computer on.

All done!

This trick is used on all forms of electronics. Computers, cell phones, routers, modems, TVs, DVD/Blue-Ray players and so on.

Have you ever heard someone say their computer wasn't working right, so they unhooked it, took it to a computer repair shop and when they got there the system was working fine?
This is because the power had drained out of the system!

You don't really need any programs in your Start up.

Go Start - type msconfig - press enter and under the Startup tab, check which ones are already unchecked if any and then click on Disable all - Apply - OK - Restart.

After it has rebooted, reboot it again to see what your Start up time is like.

It's also quite possible you've amassed a fair bit in the Temp folder that will remain even when a computer is regularly shut down and this can slow a computer up.

Go Start - type %temp% and press enter - if there's a substantial amount in there then click on Organize - Select all - Organize - Delete - then empty the Recycle Bin - again, checking the boot up time.

Also go Start - type disk cleanup and right click on Disk Cleanup and Run as an administrator.

If either of the steps to clean out files is substantial then follow that up with a Defrag.

An infection can also slow up a computer so run a malware scan with a robust scanner.
