It's fine, figured it was something to that effect, hence why I simply edited it.

SSD, definition? I used to know what that was but have forgotten lol. I really need to take 30 minutes to uninstall a bunch of un needed programs and delete some accumulated crap. It's pretty slow on bootup and takes about 5 minutes to load all of the back ground programs like "HP support assistant" and while it's doing all of that, opening chrome is barely possible lol. It's best to turn it on and go do something and come back later. It automatically shuts down after a day or so in standby while plugged in (settings?) And needs a battery.

Before you go with a SSD, you need to find out if your machine can hold two HDD or if you need a bunch of room. A SSD is typically 128 or 256 gigs. 256 is still big bucks compared to a 2 TB traditional drive.

If it's taking a long time to boot up, have you tried using sleep mode instead of turning it off? That saves a ton of time. You can also go into msconfig and stop a bunch of stuff from starting when Windows boots up. More RAM, if the motherboard will take it, is your best bang for the buck. If it's running on battery it may have (and be on) a low power mode. Power profiles usually in Control Panel. If you don't do a lot of design with it then uninstall all but the basic fonts. And as you mentioned, getting rid of the bloat ware helps a good amount, too. When you get rid of everything, empty the recycle bin, run CCleaner including a registry check, and then defragment the hard drive.

I know my way around the control panel, messed with the settings quite a bit before I found what I liked. Msconfig- is that the menu you can get to by pressing esc on bootup? Haven't messed with that any. Also idk about pushing it for more performance through the processor, it gets EXTREMELY hot. I think after I clean it out though that it'll stop running as hard and not get so hot.
 
No grammar police. I changed the meaning.

WTF is a hash brown selfie?
 
Googled it. Esurance guy. Got it.
