<human>:  What should I do if my computer is running slow?
<bot>: If your computer is running slow, the first step is to check your computer's resources and detect what processes, services, and applications are using the most resources. Once you determine what processes and applications are using a lot of your computer's resources, you can decide what action to take. You may want to try closing certain programs or scheduling virus scans to run overnight. Another option is to upgrade your computer's hardware components for better performance.
