In this article, I am going to show how to speed up your computer in 4 easy steps. Some of these may consume a lot of time but others might be done very fast. If all these 4 steps are done now, you will be able to notice your difference in the speed immediately. So let’s get into it.
1. Disk cleanup: Use simple windows disk clean up. You don’t need any software or tool to do this task. Simple use the tool provided by windows. If you don’t know how to do this task, follow the instructions below
a) Press the start button in your desktop. You can also do that be pressing the windows key in your keyboard which is usually near the alt and ctrl button in your keyboard.
b) Once you press the start button, go in “programs” or “All programs” and then go “Accessories” from where you should go to “system tools” and select the “Disk cleanup”.
By now you might be seeing a window where it shows your old files are being compressed. Wait for that to finish. Once it is finished, windows will give an option with many files and folders which has a description along with it if you cannot recognize. Just select the file which you think is not needed in your system and then press “OK”. When the prompt comes for deleting files, also press “yes”. You are done with the first step.
2. Fix all the disk errors: When you use hard drive very frequently for installing programs or even accessing programs, it develops bad sectors in your drive. You can fix that by repairing disk errors. Here is how to do it:
a) Go to “My Computer”. You can do that by directly accessing it from the dektop if you have the icon or go in the start menu to access it. Then right in one of “local disk”. I don’t what it is named in your computer but usually the it is “C”, “D” or “E”. After right clicking in one of the hard disk, go to properties. Select the tab “tool” in the top and select “check now” in the error checking option.
b) Check both the box, “Automatically fix file system errors” and “scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors” and then press “start”. Do that for all the drives in you system and you will feel the difference your system’s speed.Registry Easy
3. Defragmenting: I don’t recommend you do this now since it takes a lot of time and also makes your computer slow. Start it when you are not using computer for a long time like just before going to the bed or going out. Here is how to do it:
It’s just the some procedure which you did for fixing disk errors except instead of selecting “check now” in tools tab in your local disk properties, select “defragment now”. Always analyze before defragmenting because you might not need to defragment your computer. Just press analyze and defragment if it says to do so.Registry Easy reviews
4. Use a registry cleaner: If you are not using a registry cleaner, then you are not allowing your computer to perform in it’s true potential. Our registry is a very important part of our operating system. Almost every processes we run in our system has to have to do something with our registry. So our registry has to be clean every time so that processes can run efficiently. But unfortunately if you are not using a registry cleaner, you registry will have a lot junk and unnecessary files in it. This leads to slowing up your processes and eventually your whole system slows up. And ultimately it may also lead to system freeze and crash. All the steps given above this one are done with windows tools. As you know these windows tools don’t get updated or have the latest features and definitions and cannot detect many of the latest errors and vulnerabilities in your system. So go get yourself the best registry cleaner available in the market to speed up your computer by at least 30-50%.Registry Easy review
Windows XP Registry Repair may sound like a very difficult and long procedure, but it doesn’t have to be. You can repair the windows XP registry yourself if you know how to do it and if you have the proper tools at your disposal.
First of all, let’s identify whether you do really need to repair your Windows XP registry. If your computer has a slow response and performance and a slow startup, gives a lot of weird error messages, freezes or crashes, then you may be right in guessing that the problem lies with the Registry. The Windows XP registry holds a lot of important information that are vital for the survival of your operating system. Therefore, it is advisable to clean and repair it without delaying.
There are certain things that you have to perform first:
- Create a System Restore point. A restore point is where your computer can revert back its settings to, in case something is messed up and you damage the operating system.
You can do it by navigating to Start->All Programs->Accessories->System tools->System restore-> Create a restore point
- Make a backup of your registry. This will ensure that that you can revert your registry back to the original settings in case you have to.
You can do this by navigating to Start->Run-> In the box that appears type REGEDIT. Don’t make any changes, just go to File->Export->Name your file, choose a place to save it and click save.Registry Easy
- Now you can start a Windows XP Registry Repair. There are two ways to do it: either manually or automatically. You can locate and repair the corrupted files yourself if you know exactly what you are doing. If you are not a techie, then the best option is to use an automatic windows registry cleaner like RegistryBooster. A registry cleaner scans your system to locate invalid or missing registry entries and then repairs them.
There are many registry cleaners available, some can do a good job while most of them cannot. Just make sure you choose a registry cleaner that is reputable and safe.
A very reliable and inexpensive registry cleaner is Registry Booster. In my experience with a lot of registry cleaning programs, I found that Registry Booster is among the few that can really get the job done safely, and the only one that has the option to defrag the registry, which further optimizes and boosts the performance of your computer.Registry Easy reviews
The one reason why Registry Booster stands out from other registry cleaners is because it can defrag the Registry. This takes some time, but it improves the PC’s performance drastically. It also has other features that make it safer, faster and more reliable than other registry cleaners.
In order to find out the difference made by cleaning and defragging the registry using RegistryBooster, I decided to benchmark my computers performance both before and after operating the software. You can check out a computers performance by looking at the task manager, which can be accessed by pressing Alt, Ctrl, and Delete buttons simultaneously, and then navigating to the performance tab. What I found from this experimental run was that Registry Booster can really boost up the performance of the PC, speed up the response time and therefore it does truly live up to its claims.Registry Easy review
