Performance - perhaps the most important parameter of the PC, so every user must have a whole arsenal of methods to combat the "brakes" of the system. Even if you have a new powerful computer with inadequate care you will soon notice a slowdown of its work. So, here are some simple methods to increase productivity, including preventive.
Exemption from extra programs
We are talking about programs that you do not use regularly, but are constantly consuming system resources. Disabling the automatic startup of all the "extra" programs and services, at least you will increase the amount of free RAM.
Click Start-> Run... (or a combination of Win + R on Windows 7), enter msconfig and press Enter. a window will appear before you to disable the autorun programs at startup:
Now again Start-> Run. enter services.msc, Then Enter (you can simply type "Services" in the Start menu). In the window that appears, you will see quite a large list of services, among which I would advise to pay attention to the Windows Update and Security Center. The latter, however, only be disconnected if you have an antivirus installed, otherwise no one will be held responsible for the security of your PC.
In addition, you need to connect the logic:
- You do not have a Tablet PC - why do you service the Tablet PC Input?
- You do not have a TV-tuner - should disable the Windows Media Center Receiver.
- As well as services such as fax, telephony, smart card - they certainly do not take tens of megabytes of RAM, but, following the principle of "Occam's Razor", they should also be disabled.
Treatment and correction of errors
Disable unnecessary, need to tidy up a bit. To do this, we acquire a free program to optimize your PC CCleaner.
Its interface is simple and intuitive, and all you have to do - it regularly (at least once a month) to run the hard drive clean and registry cleaning. This measure is both preventive and not superfluous to find the causes of low productivity. In addition, CCleaner can also help to set up the aforementioned startup.
Disk Defragmenter
This was probably all heard, but not all are paying the proper attention. Many large files can be fragmented, ie written not whole and in parts, in those hard disk areas that were free. To remedy this, it suffices to use standard Windows defragmetatsii service, which can be found in the Control Panel. Generally, in Windows 7 and Vista defragmentation occurs automatically, so that at this point you should pay attention primarily to users other Windows-based systems.
acceleration
It's hard not to mention the acceleration of PC hardware, but it is a complicated task, especially if you You are not going to simply increase the frequency of the processor, but also to squeeze more out of RAM and graphics memory. This is a topic for a separate post, and you'll find plenty of information on this subject without any problems.
