=====================================
No matter how fast your processor and regardless of how
much ram you carry, there comes a time once
you realize
your computer just doesn't run as fast as it did once
you
bought it.
Windows loads slower, programs take longer to launch,
and, in general, your computer drags like it just came
off a 2-night drinking binge.
If this sounds like your situation, these 5 tips should
help you get several extra speed from your PC.
~ Disk Cleanup Utility ~
You may not realize it, but just because you stop with
a file doesn't mean your computer does.
In galore cases, if your computer's hard driving were a
garage, you would-be have unused junk files heaped 20 feet
high and spilling out into the street.
Everyone should use the Windows "Disk Cleanup Utility" to
delete old, unused, and temporary files that clog your
hard drive.
Click Start, point at All Programs (or Programs),
Accessories, System Tools, and click Disk Cleanup.
Analyze your hard driving for files you can eliminate and
it may shock you to see how more hard driving space (and
speed) you can free up with a few clicks.
~ "Defrag" ~
Imagine a properly maintained hard driving as room the size
of Wal-Mart filled with filing cabinets.
Now imagine rending open every drawer of every filing
cabinet, throw
the contents onto the floor and trying
to find one document -that's a fragmented hard drive.
Sometimes lack of speed just results from your computer
working too hard to find the files it needs.
You can solve this problem by "defragging" your hard
drive.
Click Start, point to All Programs (or Programs),
Accessories, System Tools, and click Disk Defragmentor.
Choose the disk you want to defragment and expect to let
the program run for several hours.
~ Uninstall Unused Software system ~
We all maintain software system on our systems we rarely, if
ever, use.
That software system can steal system resources. Click Start,
Control Panel, and "Add Move out Programs" to pull up a
screen that allows you to move out old programs you don't
use anymore.
Simply choice and uninstall all programs you cognize for
sure you don't need or want.
~ Buy Much RAM ~
Increasing your RAM, a computer's memory, can
dramatically increase speed once
running certain
operations or programs.
RAM price so little now that you should install the
maximum figure of memory your system can handle.
~ "Stop Them At Startup" ~
This operation requires a bit more technical savvy than
the another four, so proceed with caution.
Many programs load into the system receptacle
in the lower
right of your computer's desktop and consume system
resources even as if you ne'er
use them.
Click Start, Run, type in msconfig, and press Enter.
Click the "Startup" tab to see a list of programs that
automatically start with Windows.
Clear the check box next to programs you cognize you don't
want to load at startup.
But don't clean any checkbox unless you are 100% certain
of a program's purpose.
Once you finish, click OK and it wish prompt you to
restart Windows.
