<br />
Most people don't think much about their hard drives unless the computer crashes or another problem occurs. But you shouldn't worry about keeping your computer running smoothly only when something goes wrong. Regular maintenance can prevent trouble before it starts. Here are some hints for maintaining your system in top form.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight:bold;">Certain basic computer maintenance and housekeeping chores need to be done by all home PC users. Procedures are discussed for this basic task.</span><span class="fullpost"> <br />
<br />
A large fraction of the population now uses a computer at home. Unfortunately, large numbers of these home users do not seem to understand that a computer is a high-maintenance device that demands much more routine care than the usual household appliances. Also, many home users are unwilling or unable to spend the time and effort required to learn some elementary knowledge about how computers function. There is no question that many ordinary home PC users would benefit greatly from just a modicum of basic knowledge on the subject but I also know from experience that there is a lot of inertia and considerable reluctance to learn that basic knowledge.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358321452645010942.post-89159327780535432232009-03-25T16:34:00.000-07:002009-08-27T15:21:39.525-07:00Windows XP >>>>>> XP Speed Secret 1<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbsp2Zc9s3Aok4dasG0IhQ22MY_KxTWo58n-ci9a-pRq0Q-kgfsR1ackcMwPYFk-vpKrqdiOzXFZY0ZLTB0h9TRmSCtUJPEBbcobzmbscjUERzUBErDMMG73IehF3tUncrOq5Pb1KRe_lC/s1600-h/blogcon007.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 114px; height: 107px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbsp2Zc9s3Aok4dasG0IhQ22MY_KxTWo58n-ci9a-pRq0Q-kgfsR1ackcMwPYFk-vpKrqdiOzXFZY0ZLTB0h9TRmSCtUJPEBbcobzmbscjUERzUBErDMMG73IehF3tUncrOq5Pb1KRe_lC/s320/blogcon007.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5317366147250211426" border="0" /></a><br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Disable Extra Startup Programs </span><br />
<br />
<br />
There are certain programs that Windows will start every time you boot up your system, and during the startup phase, <span style="font-weight: bold;">they're all competing for a slice of your CPU speed</span> . Extra or unwanted items in the startup list will definitely increase your startup time, perhaps by several minutes. Some common examples are things related to<br />
AOL, RealPlayer, Napster, instant messengers, and video managers.<span class="fullpost"> <br />
<br />
If you're not sure about an item, no big deal. You can turn it off, restart your PC, and see if everything seems to work. If not, you can always go back and re-enable an item in the Startup list. This tip alone should <span style="font-weight: bold;">speed up your start-up by 250%</span> . Here are is what<br />
you have to do:<br />
<br />
1. Go to <span style="font-weight: bold;">Start</span> button <span style="font-weight: bold;">Run</span> <br />
2. Type " <span style="font-weight: bold;">msconfig</span> ", without quo tations<br />
3. Hit <span style="font-weight: bold;">enter key</span> or click the <span style="font-weight: bold;">OK</span> button<br />
4. A <span style="font-weight: bold;">System Configuration Utility</span> window will show up<br />
5. Click the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Startup</span> tab <br />
6. In the Startup tab you will see several boxes and some of them will<br />
selected (checked). <span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-style: italic;">All you have to do is to uncheck extra items that are<br />
of no use</span></span> . If you run an antivirus program it is not recommended to<br />
uncheck it.<br />
7. After making you choices press the <span style="font-weight: bold;">OK</span> button, you will be prompted to<br />
restart computer to apply changes.<br />
8. After restarting your computer a dialogue will be displayed. You can check<br />
the option for not showing this dialo gue every time your PC reboots<br />

Windows Vista is a rather heavy operating system with many neat features, but unfortunately they all come at a price. As a brand new operating system, it requires a pretty fast system to run well , if not optimized. <br />
