  • How can I make my computer run more efficiently?

    Hello

    Okay, so I asked recently how I could make my computer faster. I have a Compaq Presario SR1601NX with HP ha17 monitor. It runs Windows XP Home Edition with Service Pack 3. I installed CCleaner and Defraggler on my computer. I use CCleaner at least twice a week, especially after using the internet. I also run Defraggler at least twice a month. In addition, I have Microsoft Security Essentials, that I keep up to date, as I do with Windows Firewall, automatic updates and Virus protection. I went through and remove all programs that I don't use, and I run chkdsk, find no problem. After you run CCleaner and Defraggler, my computer seems a bit faster. However, after some time, it is once more quite slow. Anyone know anything else I can do to make my computer run faster and more efficiently. I don't want to clutter up my machine with random programs. I'm also looking for things I can do for free. I prefer to buy a new computer than to invest money in my only current. It is just better to buy a new one? If so, what kind of computer should I get in? Any information will be greatly appreciated.

    CCleaner is a program to eliminate the stuff that you don't need, and so
    save you disk space; It really doesn't do anything to improve
    performance. Maybe defragment the hard drive can speed things up
    some, but how effective is it is depends on how you use your computer.

    With very few exceptions, all the programs that are designed to speed up your
    computer is nothing but snake oil powder and are likely to be a problem.
    I recommend that avoid you them like the plague.

    Without a lot more details, it is very difficult to know what is causing your
    problem, but maybe you run modern software and your former
    Material XP - era is really too slow for her.
    With Windows XP support this ending coming April, purchase a new
    computer and run the latest version of Windows (Windows 8)
    probably makes the most sense. It will give you a modern material and a
    supported Windows version.

  • Homegroup that my pc can't find the other pc, it seems that the Peer Networking Identity Manager service is not running. How can I make it work

    I lost contact with other computers in collective housing. It would seem that the Peer Networking Identity Manager service (p2pimsvc) does not work. How can I make it work?

    Hi Ken Jones571,

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    I suggest you to set the service to automatic and check if this is useful.

    a. click the Start button and type Services in the Start Search box and press enter.

    b. find the Peer Name Resolution Protocol (PNRPsvc) services or services Peer Networking Identity Manager (p2pimsvc), set it to Automatic to clicking on the service and selecting Properties and change the Startup type to Automatic.

    Method 1: I suggest you try a clean boot and check if the problem persists in the boot.

    Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to configure the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 of the article mentioned above.

    Method 2: It could be that the NVRP svc and p2pimsvc is corrupted, remove entry can help you solve your query. Check the following location and delete the file idstore.sst

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

    On another PC I want to save my favorites, but my browser Firefox does not work how can I make the backup, before I reinstall Firefox.

    This may be considered to be solve my problem.

I used Windows XP Add Remove programs who asked if I wanted to save the settings of Firefox until I uninstalled Firefox. I said yes and operated with the uninstall.

    Hello

    You need Virtual WiFi:

    You may not have that unless you try to connect to other WiFi devices via your computer and
    many WiFi devices and their drivers do not correctly support the virtual pilot.

    Check with the manufacturer of system and/or support updated real manufacturer Sites and WiFi device drivers.
    (Which is also updating the driver virtual.) If no new drivers WiFi are available then re - install the present
    one.

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

    Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
    below is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
    found)
    http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

    Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version.
    (Those become your fonts of rescue system manufacturer).

    Repeat for network card (NIC) and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as
    Windows 7 like the updated drivers.

    ==========================================================================

    More information on what WiFi devices a virtual: (as noted above, if the device or the driver is not
    support the virtual device or is not required then it can be disabled).

    The WiFi device and the driver is installed must support a Virtual WiFi configuration. Check with the system
    Manufacturer support, their documentation online and drivers and ask in their forums (if any) known
    questions. If the wireless device is supported for OEM sound drivers, visit their site for updated drivers and

  • How can I reduce what is running in the background because the computer runs very slowly.

    Original title: S L O W speed

    How can I reduce what is running in the background?  How can I know about the enigmatic ID that I need the program running?

    Click Start, run and type msconfig.

    On the Startup tab, uncheck what you think that you don't need running at startup.

    Then run a virus scan and AntiSpyware - you can find ones that are free on the net and and make sure you have a firewall too.

    Press alt-ctrl-del to bring up the Task Manager and close everything that is running that you think are also unnecessary.

    Overall be careful; confirm and backup before doing the things mentioned.

  • How can I make Outlook (which replaced Hotmail) my default email?

    I was previously using MSN Premium and have decided not to renew my subscription and just use hotmail. However, my hotmail account was converted to the new format, Outlook. When I go to my default list to choose a program to default email that I'll use for quick access, or Outlook or Hotmail appears on this list either. How can I make the new Outlook my default email?

    Normally, I first click START and then click on "default programs". Then I click on "Set your default programs."

    This 'New' Outlook which has replaced my Hotmail not even appears in the list of programs so that I can set it as the default e-mail program.

    I am running Windows Vista and using Internet Explorer 9 (which is constantly freezing up now!)

    I hope that helps you identify and solve my problem. Thank you.

    Hi Nancy,.

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    Please be informed that Outlook.com is a service of free web mail from Microsoft, like Hotmail.com; for example, you can't use it as default mail client/program.

    You can download the program from Windows live mail and then try to add Outlook.com account to check, if that makes a difference.
