Top Ten Tips To Improve System Speed
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!
