Two of my friends computers where very slows, but could not find any problem with them. After 2 to 3 years of operation, both computers needed to have new thermal paste between the CPU & heat sink. In both cases, this worked like magic.
Both computers would have very slow boot times and the CPU fan was on all the time. The old thermal paste was dried up and near solid/powder.
