  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.

  Do a house cleaning and the dust of this hard drive:

  You can free up disk space (will also help get rid of the things that you do not use) through the following steps:

  Windows XP should take between 4.5 and 9 GB * with * an Office suite, editing Photo software, alternative Internet browser (s), various Internet plugins and a host of other things installed.

  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:

  While probably not 100% necessary-, it is probably a good idea at this time to ensure that you continue to get the updates you need.  This will help you ensure that your system update is ready to do it for you.

  Download and run the MSRT tool manually:

  Download/install the latest program Windows installation (for your operating system):

  Reset.

  and...

  Download the latest version of Windows Update (x 86) agent here:
  http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=91237
  ... 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.

  You can join support Messenger - Windows Live space (http://messenger-support.spaces.live.com)

  OR Windows Live Help (http://windowslivehelp.com/community)

   

  It is possible that you have corrupted cache files; You can try to delete the cache folder and check if that helps. You can also temporarily disable your firewall and check if all of the parameters of the firewall is a cause. Better support for the effort, I'd say uninstall you the current Windows live Messenger and install the latest version (http://download.live.com/messenger)

• Windows 7 - a lot of problems after installing Windows Live Essentials 11

  Help!  I did an update recommended this morning... There were 2... not computer saavy, so do not know what they were called. But, it has changed our e-mail window & I do not like change. Also, if I scan a picture to send by e-mail, something which is called SkyDrive is used and it cuts the top of each scan on my end and the recipient, & on end recip, it shows pictures too small to see how no matter how much detail & they can't find a way to enlarge it. I need to this scan and send to work.  I can somehow get rid of these windows updates?  If this is not the case, can I at least get rid of the sky drive so we use it not for a scanned image? We use Windows Live Mail, so when I saw Windows Live for the update, I thought it was just for the e-mail program and I had to do. However, I had to sign up for Windows Live, & I have no need of all _'s done it now.  I want my old program back without losing anything that is stored in the process, like electronic program records complete. If I knew it wasn't an update of simple e-mail program, I never would have it.

I started to let that happen, but then I thought, ' wait, maybe I should cancel this update and check to see if there is already a newer version (for example, '2012') of Windows Live Essentials "(I had no idea at the time where it's the only version of Windows Live Essentials, should I use for Vista). So I cancelled the update and that's where I made my mistake. He canceled for me and said something along the lines of "it may be a problem with one or more of the programs (such as).

Then he says below, "Please wait until all other programs are finished installing and then try again."

• is the only way to get windows mesh by installing windows live essentials. I want only mesh

  I don't want all the other stuff that comes with the essentials.

  I have Windows Live Essentials on my computer and I do not run or use all that and it doesn't cause problems for me, so one option would be to simply not use the other stuff.  The only negative I can think of is that it would take place a small amount of space on your hard drive. The other option would be to uninstall the things you don't want.  You can go to the control panel > uninstall a program and select Windows Live Essentials and then click on the Uninstall button very early during the uninstall of the process and you will see a window where you can select individual within Windows Live Essentials to uninstall programs.
