How To Speed Up Your Computer Performance Easily

Generally computer performance was influenced by processor, RAM, VGA and hard disk. I have several ways to keep and speed up my computer performance :

 

1. Check your computer for any spyware, virus, adware or any other parasite program.
   
    
2. Install one anti-virus only on your computer. If available, update the anti-virus daily. Using more than one anti-virus will lead to memory (RAM) consumption and conflict between it.
   
    
3. Don’t run too many programs simultaneously. It will consume more memories (RAM) and spend time for swapping data from virtual memory on your hard disk to RAM, and from RAM to virtual memory. Close any unnecessary application and let you work with main application only.
   
    
4. Reduce or limit the number of start-up program. (See above). If exist any start up program that can run manually, remove it from start up and you may load it only when you really need it.
   
    
5. Uninstall every unnecessary program. If you do that, you will reduce memory consumption by unnecessary program and at least you will gain more space on your hard disk.
   
    
6. Delete old temporary files. It will become helpful if you run out of space.
   
    
7. Update computer program and driver regularly. So that program or driver did not run under compatible mode.
   
    
8. Don’t place too many shortcuts or files on your desktop. The Operating system will need more extra time when it need to refresh the desktop.
   
    
9. Use Disk Defragmenter regularly. File fragmentation will make file loading process slower. You can fix it with Disk Defragmenter tool.
   
    
10. Set the initial size of virtual memory at least to the number that recommended by the operating system. So when it need to grow, it will not make too many fragmentation.
    
     
11. If available, Place the virtual memory and the system temporary folder in one special drive. So it will not intrude the file fragmentation on another drive.
    
     
12. Use separate drive for both the operation system files and the data files. It will reduce the file fragmentation probability.
    
     
13. Immediately eject any CDs/DVDs and also unplug any USB or other media after you use it. It will reduce the frequent of media detection by the operating system or also by anti-virus scanning.
    
     
14. Do not doing install-uninstall programs too often. It may harm your computer operating system, the registry at least. Use registry cleaner program to fix it. The other way, you can save system configuration before you installing any test software and restore it immediately after you done.
    
     
15. Disable all animations, wallpaper, sound effects, or any multimedia aspects that you do not work with it.
    
     

If all tips above doesn’t work with your computer, I have one last tip that the most powerful and easiest way to speed up your computer: sell it and buy a new one.
