Slow and Crashing

My comp keeps going really slow, the screens keep
hanging, my broadband connection is dead slow and the
system crashes.

I had a new cd-rw fitted a few days ago which seems to
work well but is a lot faster (52 speed) and I've also
doubled my memory to 512 recently.

What can be happening. I've checked for a virus, done
all the necessary scan disk, disk clean up and
defragged. I'm really no expert so what else can I do?
I'm about ready to hang myself with the mouse wire!

I'd be grateful for any suggestions which are easy to
understand.
 
try doing the msconfig, by start-run-MSCONFIG then go to
startup tab, and then uncheck the unnecessary ones(most of
them) And then then hit OK and restart. The computer
should come up fine.
 
responce to slow and crashing;
I had this problem for way too long Finally i realized
that everytime i ran a scan with norton 2002 antivirus
my computer would freeze up never finishing a scan.So i
go to NORTON WEBSITE FOR HELP SENT AN E-MAIL TWICE with
the problem it is now 2 weeks later and still no responce
from NORTON(IMAGINE THAT) Finally i uninstalled NORTON
and got a much better and custermer orienteed antivirus
program, HAVE NOT had any problems since,IT found 42
errors and config problems norton had been missing all
year.
thanks;
