  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.

  I use windows XP Home Edition. It takes awhile to start when I turn on the computer. How can I speed up this process?

  original title: slow start
  • Faster processor.
  • Fastest hard drive.
  • Faster or more RAM/memory.
  • Less things loading at startup.
  • Appropriate and the most recent hardware device drivers.

  In XP, you can cleanup and optimize it in some way, by using the following tips:

  Search for malware:

  Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

  • MalwareBytes (FREE)
  • SuperAntiSpyware (FREE)

  Remove anything they find.  Reboot when necessary.  (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

  Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

  The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:

  Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in.  Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.)  You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

  You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory.  This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

  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:

  and...

  Download the latest version of Windows Update (x 86) agent here:

  ... and save it to the root of your C:\ drive. After you register on the root of the C:\ drive, follow these steps:

  Close all Internet Explorer Windows and other applications.

  Now that your system is generally free of malicious software (assuming you have an AntiVirus application), you've cleaned the "additional applications" that could be running and picking up your precious memory and the processor, you have authorized out of valuable and makes disk space as there are no problems with the drive itself and your Windows Update components are up-to-date and should work fine - there is another thing you pouvez wish to make:

  Hello

  You did changes to the computer before the show?

  Method 1

  Step 1: I suggest to start in safe mode with network and check if the problem persists:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

  Note: select Safe mode with network.

  Step 2: If the question does not persist in SafeMode with network, then put the computer to boot and check what third-party application's driver is causing the problem:

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: after a repair, be sure to configure the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.

  Method 2: Run the Microsoft safety scanner to ensure that the system is free of infection by the virus:

• How can I speed up my pc

  Hello

  How can I speed up my pc

  I have a hard drive divided into two, the first of has only about 200 mb stiil franco start 20 GB

  Anyone know where I could buy the necessary things to speed up my PC

  IE makes PC World, sell and install everything that can speed up a pc

  Adam

  200 DIMC is small enough and will likely cause your computer down.

  That being said, 20 concerts is also low.

  My first suggestion is to create a free account on the microsoft skydrive site.

  then download files in your 'My documents' folder, then remove them from the hard drive.

  In doing so, you can temporarily give your computer more disk space hard until you upgrade your system.

  the next thing to do is to consider adding a hard drive to the system as a slave drive.

  In doing so, you will not have to reinstall the operating system and it can still remain on your system drive, i.e. master hard drive.

  You can shop for hard drives in places like bestbuy, compusa, newegg and tigerdirect and microcenter.

  my suggestion is do not go overboard with the size of the hard drive if your just an ordinary computer user.   a hard drive between 80 will be ok for you.

  In addition, you might want to add ram memory to your computer.  my suggestion is to have about 1 GB of memory on your computer.  so if you have 512 MB of ram installed, then add another 512 meg's chip to the motherboard.  the two circuits will be equal to 1,024 concerts.

  Finally, you can consider adding a graphics card in the motherboard.   This will give you your computer extra power with high graphics and video.

  check your computer manual or look at the online manual for your computer model to its Web site of the manufacturer for the technical aspects of the motherboard on the types of ram memory is required and types of slots you have for graphics on board to fit.

  but you can probably give service customer of your model number before ordering and buying their products.   in this way, they can be sure that the hard ware you order will be compatible with your computer.

  First start by going to system-> startup disk preferences and select your startup disk.  Sometimes after an update OS X startup disk becomes unselected for the firmware needs to address each possible boot device, including USB, SD card, DVD, network, etc... and wait before Timeout interface moves the next possible candidate.

  After that, start in safe mode
