Top Ten Tips To Improve SystemSpeed

Top Ten Tips To Improve SystemSpeed

1. Let your PC boot up completely
before opening any applications.
2. Refresh the desktop after closing
any application. This will remove any
unused files from the RAM.
3. Do not set very large file size
images as your wallpaper. Do not
keep a wallpaper at all if your PC is
low on RAM (less than 64 MB).
4. Do not clutter your Desktop with a
lot of shortcuts. Each shortcut on the
desktop uses up to 500 bytes of RAM
5. Empty the recycle bin regularly. The
files are not really deleted from your
hard drive until you empty the recycle
bin.
6. Delete the temporary internet files
regularly.
7. Defragment your hard drive once
every two months. This will free up a
lot of space on your hard drive and
rearrange the files so that your
applications run faster.
8. Always make two partitions in your
hard drive. Install all large Softwares
(like PSP, Photoshop, 3DS Max etc) in
the second partition. Windows uses
all the available empty space in C
drive as virtual memory when your
Computer RAM is full. Keep the C
Drive as empty as possible.
9. When installing new Softwares
disable the option of having a tray
icon. The tray icons use up available
RAM, and also slow down the booting
of your PC. Also disable the option of
starting the application automatically
when the PC boots. You can disable
these options later on also from the
Tools or preferences menu in your
application.
10. Protect your PC from dust. Dust
causes the CPU cooling fan to jam
and slow down thereby gradually
heating your CPU and affecting the
processing speed. Use compressed
air to blow out any dust from the
CPU. Never use vacuum.
RAM IS THE WORKING AREA
(DESKTOP) OF THE CPU, KEEP IT AS
EMPTY AND UNCLUTTERED AS
POSSIBLE!
