Speed Up Your PC, Optimize Performance PC
How to Optimize Performance of Personal Computers. Advances in technology is something that will happen any time. It has become commonplace or not foreign to the human race. For example, technological advances have occurred in the computer world in general and the Personal Computer or PC in particular. Of the human era using the abacus as a tool to count, to super small calculator that can calculate the sum, addition, division and multiplication. That is one example of the growing technological advances that allow there will be a super-sophisticated calculators that can be integrated directly into the human mind or brain. Once we fantasize high enough that it feels will be contrary to the ability of our PC Computer or mediocre,

coupled with our habit of carelessly in store files and then performance and capabilities of our computers become increasingly slowed down, boot or boot windows system information when turned on slow or even windows on our computer virus. Well this time I will share how we can optimize the performance of our computers, especially computer or a PC running the Windows operating system (Windows XP and Windows 7 / Seven).

reduce the startup programs or applications that come directly executed when the computer is turned on
 1. Optimize Booting Windows on the computer when we turned
To optimize the speed of the computer at boot time or when the computer is turned on you can just starting to do with reducing the startup programs or applications that come directly executed when the computer is turned on. To do this you can use a software called CCleaner. Open CCleaner program, go to the tab or the Tools section, select the Startup tab and select the Windows tab and note any programs or applications that include application startup. Please select one of the applications that you think are less important, and then click Disable. To try feel the results please restart your computer.

 

2. Disable display Desktop gadgets and Icon on the desktop (on Windows 7)
I think this would be useful in readiness computer when a new entry into the display windows at the moment after the boot process. By not displaying Desktop gadgets and Desktop Icon on your desktop then this will cut a few seconds. To Disable Desktop gadgets and Icon display on the desktop you can do with a right click on the desktop and navigate to the menu view.

 

3. Set Performance Options
In this step we have to choose, what would we optimize on the computer or PC. If we choose the best Adjust the Appearance then we optimize our PC to hight graphic view or call Best Looking, If we select Adjust bes Performance then we choose the option that optimize the performance of your computer at any speed regardless best looking, and the Custom option then we can choose and any sort of visual effect option we will use any funds that effect would not be used. Of course it all can not be separated from the specification or capability hardware that installed on our computer.
To setup the performance on Windows 7 startmenu click, right click on Computer, select Properties, then click on Advanced System Settings, in part anvanced and groupbox Performance click the Settings button.

 

Try to put the files in a folder in the hard disk drive
 4. Try to put the files in a folder in the hard disk drive.
For this fourth step can accelerate the performance of Explorer or My Computer (on win xp) and the Computer menu in Windows 7 in the opening drive, for example, open the D drive on the hard drive in your PC. Why this may affect the speed performance of the Explorer? yes of course it affects the indexing process when we open the file in Explorer, the more files that are specified directly on the drive, then this will slow down the speed of the explorer at the time on the run. After I observed the C drive in Windows 7 (the drive that is used to install the operating system Windows 7), the drive is almost all of the files are in a directory or folder, and when we opened the Explorer then directed to the C drive then it will feel faster than we open another drive.

 

 5. Use CCleaner and clean the Temporary files or files contained in the Recycle bin.
Run CCleaner, Choose Clean menu, then click the Analyze button, after the analysis is completed, please click the Run Cleaner button.

 6. Use CCleaner to clean the registry that are not used.

Run CCleaner, Select Registry menu, then click Scan for Issues, after the scan is complete, please click the Fix Selected Issues, there is a dialog asking Jiks Backup your registry can choose yes to backup and select no to directly run the Fix.

 

Surely all back again to the hardware that installed on your PC. May be useful.
