IMPROVEMENT OF SYSTEM PERFORMANCE

I am a novice on a computer & want to know what programs can be disabled since the start of the procedure, without causing my computer problems.
I open windows defender & can see all programs, but I don't ubnderstand not the jargon used to describe programs individual can someone tell me how to decide which programs can I disable safely to improve my laptop performance & speed.
Thanks to GAVIN THOMAS hope

Hello

I suggest to add the programs that you frequently use to the start menu and disable other programs as yoo does not really use only.

Try to review this page 'How to customize the Start Menu program'

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/152122

Adding a program to a Menu to add a program to a menu, follow these steps:

  1. Click the Start button, point to settings, and then click Taskbar and Start Menu.
  2. Click programs on the Start Menu tab, click Add, and then click Browse.
  3. Locate the program you want to add, click the program, click Open, and then click Next.
  4. Click the menu on which you want the program to appear, and then click Next.
  5. Type the name that you want to appear in the menu. If a Finish button appears at the bottom of the "Select a title for the program" dialog box, click it. If a next button appears at the bottom of the dialog box, click it, click the icon you want to use for the program, and then click Finish.

Removing a program from a Menu

To remove a program from a menu, follow these steps:

  1. Click the Start button, point to settings, and then click Taskbar and Start Menu.
  2. Click programs on the Start Menu tab and then click on remove.
  3. Locate the program you want to delete, click the program, and then click on remove. Note that this deletes the shortcut to the program on the start menu, but it does not delete the program from your hard drive.

Thank you!

  • improve slow system performance

    On the right hand corner, a message appears saying my CPU is at 100%, my computer very slow.   How can I fix it?

    If you have a setting in the bios. For the cpu cache, L1 or L2 cache, > settings > writeback, writethru.

    Choose the writeback and see if that helps, don't know if it'll work or not, but it may be useful...

    Looks like just a problem that I had where the computer seemed a little slow performance and could not find a reason any for her.

    or

    If it's showing the C drive is full remove unwanted files & Internet issues! This will help you

    or remove the unwanted program by pressing CTRL + ALT + DELETE, end the process of unwanted programs. Try this also.

  • How to use memory and boost system performance by using 8 gb win7 Professional 64-bit

    Hello

    I m using HP430 (I have 3 Basic) laptop with win7 64 bit Professional installed.

    recently, I ve upgraded to 8 GB of ram, but I don't really see the system performance problem.

    Can anyone guide the optimal memory use and improve the performance of the system (file e.g.page, etc.)

    Thanks in advance,

    Prashant

    Hello.

    If, for example, your system was using 2 GB before you upgrade the memory, it will use more than 2 GB.  The only time where you would see that a performance gain would be if you had only 1 GB in the system and the system was attempting to use 2 GB.  If you had more that what you were using in the first place you will see no difference.  8 gb is a lot of memory for normal use.  At most I use about 3.5 GB and it is with some powerful applications running.

    See you soon.

  • Recovery of the factory from 32 bit to 64 bit with the note system performance

    Recovery of the factory from 32 bit to 64 bit with the note forever system performance, it's about associated wire
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=50433
    which is closed/locked, and had no correct answer.

    I just bought a Toshiba L750. After learning of the default Windows 7 installed is Windows 32 bit, I decided to go Recovery Wizard from Toshiba upgrade to 64 - bit. However, the process is stuck to the system performance of note, that repeated several times for 2 hours.

    Given that I guessed that screen performance of system just note one full screen of a normal process of Windows, so I pressed the button Windows start to display the taskbar which showed a component of Adobe installation process has failed. In any case, I clicked on the install Adobe on the taskbar button and close the window.

    The note system performance then continued with about 10 steps ahead after 15 minutes. All well done.

    So the trick is to close a window of the installation components that get stuck. Hope this helps some Toshiba laptop users out so hard.

    A suggestion from bits to the team of Toshiba laptop:
    The full screen of the Recovery Wizard is good to hide technical details from users. However, if hang in some components, like the Adobe component I've seen, this will be confusing and advises current defects if the end-user following some in the thread above, legacy because of some missing components and the wrong configuration. It is preferable that the wizard of recovery to exit full screen at a given time, or the wizard handles error scenarios better.

    > So the trick is to close a window of the installation components that get stuck. Hope this helps some Toshiba laptop users out so hard.

  • How can I improve my computer performance ratings?

    Recently I bought Halo 2 for Vista. I loaded into my computer and am really a lot about the installation process. Then I clicked on "Finish." After that, I got an error message that says "Initailization Failed". He said that he might be missing data or the disc is scarched. This was not true. It also says that you can reinstall and it would work. No luck with that. Evenually, I thought it might be my computer performance ratings. !) SIDE NOTE - I have a DELL inspiron 530 withVista '32'. (!  So I checked my notes and my areas I need to improve are: graphics (3.9) and graphics of games (3.3). As you probably know your base score is determined by your lower under-score. My lower under-score is games graphic that is 3.3. I want to get between them and my graphics (3.9) until a 5.0 rating. Can someone help me?

    You need to buy one - it is a piece of hardware (no software which can be downloaded).  Make sure the card is compatible with your computer, your BIOS, your motherboard and your version of Vista (you may need to consult the computer manufacturer to confirm, you get the right card - or get them specifically for your computer).  Also make sure that it's "quite better" solve the problem - and I would like to get a little more because the computer components become obsolete very quickly.  It will be delivered with the software, firrmware and/or drivers that must be installed before the latter won't work - instuctions should come with it or be available on the web site of the manufacturer of the video card or the provider.  Make sure that the card has enough RAM onboard to make a difference if you want to improve these scores as much as you do.  The card will tell you your new score when you buy - you'll just have to get a good and check it out to see if it does the trick.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!
