If your once-speedy computer is now crawling through everyday tasks, you’re not alone. Over time, even the best machines get bogged down with digital clutter, unnecessary programs, and outdated software. At Central Valley TechCare, we’ve helped countless customers across Fresno, Clovis, and Madera speed up their sluggish PCs—and we can help you too.

Many of our customers call us saying things like:

“My laptop takes forever to start up.”
“Web pages load slowly even though I have fast internet.”
“My computer freezes when I try to open more than one program.”

Sound familiar? Don’t worry—your computer doesn’t have to stay stuck in slow motion.

Let’s Get Rid of That Clutter

A cluttered system is one of the top reasons your PC might be slowing down. Temporary files, unused applications, outdated drivers, and browser bloat all pile up—silently sapping your computer’s performance.

Here’s what we typically do at CVTechCare to bring your computer back to life:

Clear unnecessary startup programs – Many apps sneak into your startup routine, causing long boot times.
Uninstall unused software – Old programs you no longer need often run background processes that drain resources.
Remove junk files – Temporary internet files, system cache, and outdated logs can take up gigabytes of space.
Check for malware – In some cases, performance issues stem from hidden malware or spyware slowing your system down.
Update drivers and Windows – Outdated system drivers or OS versions can cause compatibility issues that impact speed.

We also run a comprehensive diagnostics scan and provide personalized recommendations to improve speed based on your system specs and usage needs.

Other Common Causes of a Slow Computer

Not every slow PC problem is caused by clutter. Sometimes the issue runs deeper. Here are a few additional culprits we see all the time:

🔹 Low RAM or Failing Hard Drive

If your computer has 4GB of RAM or less, and you’re running Windows 10 or Windows 11, it might be underpowered for multitasking. Older spinning hard drives also degrade over time and may need replacement.

We often recommend upgrades like:

Upgrading to an SSD (Solid State Drive) – This can make your computer feel brand new.
Increasing your RAM – Especially if you run multiple apps at once.
System refresh or reinstall – When everything else fails, a clean slate can bring major speed improvements.

🔹 Overheating

If your computer gets hot to the touch or shuts down randomly, heat buildup may be the issue. Dust in the fan or poor ventilation can slow down performance or even cause damage. We offer internal cleaning and thermal re-pasting for desktops and laptops.

🔹 Bloatware

New computers often come with pre-installed software that runs in the background—even if you never use it. We remove bloatware and tune your system for optimal performance.
