Hey there. I'd download a program called CCleaner. It helps with a bunch of stuff you're looking to improve - and it's Free.
After opening it up, Analyze and Run Cleaner
Then on Issues, Scan for issues and Fix. You probably should make a backup. Save it anywhere you like.
Last, Click on Tools, and then the Startup button. I would make sure that the following are unchecked:
pinger.exe - this is a Toshiba tool that tells you if there are updates for your laptop. No need for that.
cli.exe - your ATI video card program, and not critical. No need for that running.
ddwmon.exe - Another Toshiba utility for writing disks. I'd disable, and see if it hurts anything.
jussched.exe - Disable for sure. Java Update manager, and you won't need that checking everyday.
cfsvcs.exe - Another Toshiba Utility. Can they add any more? Let's see :)
Ramasst.exe is running to disable Windows DVD burning utility. Probably because Toshiba wants you to use theirs. Disable it and see what happens. I bet it won't hurt.
RTHDCPL.exe - Realtek HD Audio Control Panel - you probably don't need this either.
smoothview.exe - Gives you the ability to zoom in common applications. If you don't need that, then disable it.
tappsrv.exe - Another Toshiba utility. Try disabling and see.
Toddsrv.exe - see above.
For some reason you have Doctor Watson and Dumprep running there, telling me that some program crashed on your computer, or you have an unstable driver, and your computer needs to be rebooted. This will slow down your computer ALOT.
Try that and let me know
