Windows Frustration

I am so feed up with my computer. It takes forever to boot-up and I’m not on it for 10 minutes before it crashes and shuts down completely. But the worst thing is it takes so long to download any files or pictures. Yesterday I tried to download a video and it took 15 minutes. Is there anything I can do to speedup windows? I installed spy-ware thinking that may be the problem, but that made my computer run slower than it did before. I am not a computer wiz, but I know there has to be something I can do to make my computer more efficient.
