How To Keep Your Windows XP Running Smoothly

Written by admin on July 2, 2008 – 1:21 pm

There are many things that make contracts with a computer software equipment. It may be too small a hard drive or not enough memory.

It can BIOS and / or parameters of the operating system on programs, food until your CPU and RAM (whatever quantity). Or it may be your network.

Personally, I work on my computer as a young mother with a house full of children 12 to 18 hours a day.

The mother needs to relax at the end of the day and he has my computer and probably you, too.

Here 9 councils agenda should they finished, which can help, consider yourself lucky your computer and work without complaining:

1 This is fundamental, I should not be necessary, ie, keep Ever What email program, use cleaning Out. I have some customers are more and complain, but refuse to discharge years and years collected by e-mail.

2 Make sure that a good anti-virus (one per computer), they have updated, and automatic surveillance.

3 Make sure that a good anti-spyware (one per computer), they have updated, and automatic surveillance.

4 Run Disk Clean Up Daily (Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools, Disk Clean Up - opens a box - to make sure each check box is checked, then click “OK” - a box appears - Click on Yes) .

5 Remove the cookies and cache files every day (Start, Control Panel-if you have not already done so, click on “Switch to Classic View”, “Internet Options” - a pop-up appears - Delete Cookies and then click OK, click Click on Delete Files - check “delete all content offline mode” - Click OK, now clear history of not more than 7 days - if not not used for a week, could not escape - Click OK)

6 A very important step in almost all disappeared: empty the Prefetch folder ( “Start”, “My Computer”, “C” - Windows pre-folder, modification, select all, delete the file - Pop-up windows — Click on Yes, close the window of Windows)

7 Empty Trash. For the sake of brevity, I assume everyone knows what it is and how it empty.

8 Scan Hard Drive “C” ( “Start”, “My work”, right-click “C” - opens the zone - Click “Properties” at the bottom - will open another window - Click on Tools, click the on, make sure that the two “file automatically correct errors system” and “analysis and recovery of bad sectors test” is activated, click Start. Get yourself a cup of Java (oh, black I thank you) and wait!

9 Defrag computer (Start, Programs, Accessories, System Tools, Disk Defragmenter - window - Select “C” drive, then click Defragment). Pop higher and wait!

The last two stages (8 and 9) may take some time, if they have not yet been made recently. I have this whole routine on my computer, just before making the daily work for the day and the whole sequence lasts no more than 20 minutes and often much less.
