Hi and welcome to the HP Forum Community!

 

Without your providing the installed processor, amount of memory installed and the operating system, you have us a quite a disadvantage. 

 

It would also help if you stated what you mean by "slow" . Is it slow to boot, slow while online..etc.

 

How close to the maximum capacity is the hard disk?

 

One thing that always works is upgrading a legacy electromechanical hard disk to an appropriate type SSD.

An SSD will give you performance that will make you doubt that you are using the same PC.

 

Help us to help you by filing in some of the blanks.
