  • You can start by reading this excellent ebook on the subject:

    Troubleshooting is a complex topic, no single answer applies. Read the book and you'll find a detailed and simple troubleshooting methodology.

  • That book is absolutely the place to start.

    Performance monitor is one of the tools you'll use to capture metrics. Those metrics are listed in the book. You're also going to want to look at the performance related Dynamic Management Views (DMVs), also listed in the book. One of the first to look at is sys.dm_os_wait_stats. That will show you which resources most of your processes are waiting on. That's one of the most important ways to start to troubleshoot performance issues.
