  You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

  When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
  -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

  You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

  1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
  2. click on the System Restore tab.
  3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
  4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
  5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

  You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

  Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

  -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
  -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
  -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
  -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
  -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
  -Click OK.
  -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
  -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

  You can use an application that scans your system for the log files and temporary files and use it to get rid of those who:

• How can I speed up my internet connection?

  How can I speed up my internet connection?

  Hi vatsrajiv,

  If you have problems with your internet connection speed you better communicate with your suppliers of Internet services (ISP) technical support team. Internet high speed is governed by many factors, including your distance from your PBX and the time of day, you use the internet. If you're more than a mile from your phone (I think) Exchange and then speed will be reduced due to degradation of the signal. Yet here in the United Kingdom, resulting speeds are advertised as 8 MB and above (up to 20 or more in some areas), however, in reality, you are lucky to get an average speed of 2.5 to 4 MB on an 8 MB line.

  Another factor is the time of day you access internet. Peak your ISP is likely to "cap" of the connection speed. In other words, more people using your lower ISP connection speed system. Another factor is whether a "router" is declining in some parts of the world where your ISP traffic fell through. Also, this may cause more slow responses of the web pages. Yesterday, I visited a webpage which, under normal conditions, takes about 15 seconds to load. On this occasion, it took more than 70 seconds to load.

  You also don't say if you are using broadband or dial-up connection services. While we always assume that everyone has broadband is not always the case. Remote connections are still alive and well in many parts of the countryside, especially those. A dial is notoriously slow compared to broadband by default.

  You can check your ISP website and check their "State of the line" to see if they have problems. If all goes well, it might be useful to contact your ISP and get them to check your phone line, just in case where there is a problem with your telephone line or even your router if you are on broadband.

• How can I speed up the downloads of windows seven?

  How can I speed up the download time? According to the size-10 to 30 minutes to download a pdf file? Seems it should be much faster then 10-30 minutes

  There is no way to speed up the downloads.  Download speeds are dependent on your ISP and the package that you have with them.  If you don't have a fast connection speed or fast package, you will get faster speeds of the upgrade of your Internet service provider Package.

  Hello

  The page/site seems to load very well at the moment.

  However if want to inspect what could slow down the loading of your page I recommend using 'firebug' and select the 'network' tab to follow every chronology file loading.  Then you can see which file takes more time to load to help make adjustments accordingly.

• How can I speed boot for my windows?

  Origin: my windows supports boot, how can I do it faster and how do I disable some unnecessary windows components without affecting its performance

  Hello

  Make sure you have the Superfetch service and ReadyBoost are running and then try to speed up the startup using my guide [1]. This causes the prefetcher in Windows 7. This increase startup performance a lot. All other tweaking tools are useless. Use this method only with the Microsoft Toolkit.

  If it is not to speed up the startup process, follow my guide [2] to start track and compress theboot_BASE + CSWITCH + DRIVERS + POWER_1.etl RAR or 7z and transfer it to your Skydrive [3] and post the link here.

  I take a look at the trace, maybe I see what's wrong with your Windows.

  Find the performance that you had when you 1st installed can be a little difficult if nothing else, because our perceptions can be skewed a bit over time.

  Basic tasks

  Use programs and features in Control Panel to find applications and utilities you don't use, remove them. Many all-in-one printers install full of additional such as monitors use, utility of feedback services and consumable order links that few people use.

  Msconfig Startup tab will show what programs are loaded whenever the PC starts and off slow start, they can cause a slowdown of the system, and how many times do you really need to update the printer drivers.

  We can all see additional toolbars that grafted to other downloads but how many know the Addons that work in the background, click on the symbol to gear and to manage Addons to see if one is there who should not be.

  The examples you give are web-based so did you check your broadband speed, ISP performance can deteriorate over time the more users they have. Personally, I use speedtest.net, watch out for those actually recommended by your ISP because they have been known to detect and optimize the traffic for these connections.

  The other big problem is your AV. They can be the greatest example of bloatware with backup tools and so on, when you wanted was an AV. Lots of complaints of Norton and McAfee. If you have a subscription for one I would at least consider uninstalling, run the available on the manufacturers site cleanup utility then reinstall the latest version and select the desired real modules.

  Don't forget to mark your system before you start to see if something that really makes a difference, unfortunately I doubt there will be much change. You need not actually specific benchmarking software just the time to specific tasks such as the boot to connect, connection to a specicifc displays message time. Starting an application, the time for this application to load a file especially complex.

  The ultimate can be recharge it but just that I already said on your perceptions know so, I was stunned by the increase in performance with an SSD, but now, it's just normal and any other machine is slow.

• How can I speed up my middle mouse button scrolling?

  When I try to scroll down using the middle mouse button, it goes so slow I can't, so I use the scroll bar to the right. It's embarrassing for me. When I reset the button of the mouse on my windows to multiple lines, it allows to scroll too fast for my docs, but does not affect the scrolling in FireFox. I have looked for tools and options for this and cannot find anything to do about it.

  You can try to change one (or two) of these hidden parameters:

  (1) in a new tab, type or paste Subject: config in the address bar and press ENTER. Click on the button promising to be careful.

  (2) in the search above the list box, type or paste the wheel and take a break while the list is filtered

  (3A) double-click the preference mousewheel.default.delta_multiplier_y and type a higher value to each movement of the wheel to cover more ground. For example, you can try 300 or 500. You can keep this tab open and to experiment with scrolling in a different tab until you find a value that gives you the speed you are looking for.

  (3B) double-click the preference mousewheel.system_scroll_override_on_root_content.vertical.factor and type a higher value. For example, try changing from 200 to 500. You can keep this tab open and to experiment with scrolling in a different tab until you find a value that gives you the speed you are looking for.

  I'm not sure I understand the reason why there are two such similar tariff preferences. One of them do you want?

• How can I speed up the movement of the dashes (-)?
