Answer 3

speed of your computer depends on some hard wares and soft wares.
most hard wares that can effect in your computer speed are
RAM:because slowest hardware in your computer is hard disk
and when there is not enough space on ram opratingsystem must read some of data form your hard disk during running programs so the speed of running program will reduce very much.
CPU:clear!
MAIN BOARD:transferring data between hardware is depended on this important hardware so if you want to have a high speed computer you need to have a good main board.
GRAPHIC:if you want to do programs or games with a high
graphic you need to have a good one.

at the end I have to say that in a high speed computer all hardware must be match to each other.you can not have a high
speed CPU with a low RAM !!

you may have tried these things - but i'll give you step by step guide and follow these and

this should speed up
you computer

+get some spyware sweepers for your computer - download from www.download.com - trusted site

and will not have any false positive programs on there - they test them you know - when doing

a scan turn off the automatic retore points

+ do a disk clean up - click on start then all programs > assessories > system tools > then

disk cleanup

+ yes do a defrag BUT do it in safemode because not so many programs running in the back

ground (when starting up press the f5 or f8 - select the safemode) again under safemode

+ check the programs that startup when windows start - these may be running in the background

and will slow down your computer - click start then run - type msconfig - click on the tab for

startup - this should produce a list with ticks in it - these are the programs that start when

windows start (this process is totally reversable) you can disable what you wnat you can

create a short cut on your desktop instead- try disabling them alll then click ok and restart

- I bet this will speed up you computer - try to leave the you anti virus etc running - do

you need any of these - if you don't know what any of these startup programs are or system

files - just type the file into google

+ Get some more ram

+ do a check on your hard drive for bad sectors - goto my computer - right click on the hard

drive - then properties - then tools - then check your hard drive for errors - make sure that

both the check boxes are checked - you'll get a error then restart - this will take a while

+ do a system file check - click start > run > type sfc /scannow

+ check in the eventviewer for clues to see if anything is throwing out error codes > start >

run > type eventvwr.msc - look under the application and system - look for any errors or

warnings (double click on them)- again google the results

The next part only if you are comfortable with the computer
+ if you are comfortable with the registry - click start - run type - regedit - navigate to

HKEY_CURRENT_USER/ControlPanel/desktop - modify the MenuShowDelay and reduce the value 400 -

(this milliseconds) this will make the start menu display quicker

+ you can also speed up your pc also by cutting down on some of the special effects - right

click on my computer > select properties > then click on the advanced tab then click settings

under the performance tab > select the option for "adjust for best performance"

+ also try disabling the indexing services - this may slow down searches of your own files

(only takes about 1 minute extra) - but if your not bothered about this this - this will speed

up you system - click start then run type services.msc - scroll down the list until you find

indexing services - double click on it - in the drop down box ensure the disabled is selected

also using the msconfig as before - check the services tab and then hide all microsoft

services > check to see if there are any processes that you do not need - be alittle bit

careful with this option - again google if you need to find the prog

+ if you are a advanced user you can improve you speed by enabling NTFS and write caching -

but may have already set this up when you installed windows

+ everytime windows accesses a file - the system keeps track of it and creates a timestamp -

use this for disabling the time stamp - regedit again / now navigate / HKEY_LOCal_machine -

CurrentControlSet - Control - FileSytem..... Depending on your system you should see on the

right a entry called NtfsDisableLastAccessUpdate - now modify the DWORD value, right click on

this and select modify , and the type 1 in the box to disable it- Then OK and restart your

computer

+ if you are using WiN XP and the majority of your programs are new and are not old programs-

Turn of the legacy support - basically allow windows to run older programs - when you create a

file the legacy support basically creates two file names one which will allow older versions

of windows to recognise and one that windows xp recognises - back to regedit / navigate to /

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - SYSTEM - CurrentControlSet and filesystem
on the right look for NtfsDisable8dotNameCreation right click on it and select modify - in the

DWORD box type in 1
then ok and restart

+ and lastly but a bit extreme - do a full system recovery - i.e reinstall windows - you will

lose any data but at least this will give you a computer as if it was brand new

Follow these steps and this will speed up your computer




Beware if using regedit be very cafeful - make sure you create a system restore point before
you edit any of the registry files

Answer 5

delete programs that are not used from startup. defragment hdd very often. use ntfs file system. upgrade system ram to min. 1 gb, if budget allows. minimise use of wallpapers, screensavers, etc.

Answer 6

Buy new RAM or Processor. Removing unused applications helps as well.
