WINDOWS SPEED SECRETS - WAYS TO INCREASE THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR WINDOWS XP [PART2]

XP Speed Secret #6: Clean Your System Registry
Download Ccleaner: http://adf.ly/1LUbB
Of course, the fastest and easiest way to speed-up your computer is
to allow a software program to do it for you! Although you will find
that all of the adjustments in this book will speed up your system,
the most effective and easiest way to give your computer blazing
speed is to clean up your systems Registry.

Your computer is like your car: it needs periodic maintenance to
keep it running at optimum performance. Installing and un-installing
programs, surfing the Internet, emailing, and other everyday
activities create a sort of sludge that builds up in your computer
over time, much like an automobile engine. After a while, it doesn't
startup like when it was new, it stalls unexpectedly, and performance
is sluggish on the (information) highway.


We strongly recommend running a free Registry scan to find out
how many errors you computer is hiding from you. Your computer
will likely have hundreds of Registry errors that are dramatically

slowing down the potential speed and performance.




XP Speed Secret #7: Run Disk Clean-Up

Both Windows and application programs tend to leave temporary
files lying around on your hard drive, taking up space. A hard drive
that is close to being full can cause Windows to slow down or
interfere with efficient disk access and virtual memory operations.

If you surf the web a lot, your temporary internet files folder can
become quite large, causing Internet Explorer to slow down or
malfunction. Cleaning up unneeded files, scanning for disk errors
and defragmenting the hard drive can help to restore some zip to
your system. Try to run once a month for peak performance.

1. Double-click the
My Computer

icon.

2. Right-click on
the C: drive
3. Select
Properties

4. Click the Disk
Cleanup button
(to the bottom-
right of the
Capacity pie
graph)
5. Select / check
Temporary
Internet Files
and Recycle Bin

6. Click OK




XP Speed Secret #8: Enable Direct Memory
Access (DMA)

1. Right-click on My Computer, select Properties
2. Select the Hardware tab
3. Click the Device Manager button
4. Double-click IDE/ATAPI controllers
5. Double-click on the Primary IDE Channel
6. Click on the Advanced Settings tab (as shown in figure) The
tab may or may not be available for each option. It is only
available in Primary and Secondary Channels.
7. Set the Transfer Mode to "DMA if Available" both for Device
1 and 0
8. Click OK
9. Perform the same operation for other items in the list, if
applicable.




XP Speed Secret #9: Disable File Indexing

Indexing Services is a small little program that uses large amounts
of memory and can often make a computer endlessly loud and
noisy. This system process indexes and updates lists of all the files
that are on your computer. It does this so that when you do a search
for something on your computer, it will search faster by scanning the
index lists. If you dont search your computer often, this system
service is completely unnecessary. To disable do the following:

1. Click Start button
2. Select the Control Panel
3. Double-click Add/Remove Programs
4. Click the Add/Remove Window Components icon on the left
side of the window
5. This may take a few seconds to load. Be patient.
6. Look for the Indexing Services component in the list
7. Uncheck the Indexing Services
8. Click Next
9. Click Finish




XP Speed Secret #10: Remove Un-Used Programs
& Files

You may have a bunch of software packages on your hard drive that
are no longer needed, or they were gratuitously installed when you
downloaded some other package. Toolbars, file-sharing
programs, free email enhancers, online shopping "companions"
and download managers are notorious for this practice. These
uninvited guests can put a big drag on your startup time, cause web
pages to load slowly, and generally bog down your computer.

1. Click Start button
2. Select Control Panel
3. Double-click Add/Remove Programs icon
4. See what programs are installed that you dont typically use
5. Select the Remove button for the ones you know you don't
need
If youre unsure about some programs, do a web search to learn
about the ones that you need to keep.

Too many YOUNG computer geeks getting used to doing things the wrong way. Its going to make my computer repair job much more profitable when you guys get jobs.

Make sure you go apply for "Geek Squad" at best buy please. That is where most of you morons will end up.

Just imagine if this kid is doing the same method on every computer he comes across, just because he convinced someone that he "knows a lot about computers".

@galaxymode lol No retort needed here. Way to make stuff up. xD

[galaxymode]

@passghost i agree with you, you should not use registry cleaner or disk defragmenting or disk clean up because that will spoil the computer, you should just change the hard disk and throw away ur data.. u are a fag and a noob

@passghost and sir, i know i am ignorant, cocky, and moronic. i've known that and the fact that i'll never have a girlfriend since i was 3. and i'm 5' 7 1/2". and by the way, this child, probably older than me, was trying to HELP here on youtube rather than be an annoying, little, insignificant troll.
