Computer running so slow?

Lyo · Sep 23, 2010

Ok I just bought this computer not even a month ago for my games...

Last night I go to install my old CD burner & it locks up & it sends me to this auto repair thing & after an hour of waiting it says it cannot fix it... so I end up doing a system restore

Today it worked fine up until I had to check a website about a product being recalled for my sister's two month old child & ever since then my internet has gone so slow I cannot play my games or even look at youtube

I use Windows 7 that came with a McAfee thing & I have jsut noticed that it says Real-Time Scanning is off.. But when I hit the button that says turn on it turns on for maybe a second & then it turns back off

Is there anything I can do or am I going to have to live with this computer being this slow?

Thank you for any helpful suggestions
