Pc Performance


Slow start-up

Probably one of the common problems in computers is slow startup, there are various reasons why this thing happens. The following are examples of what I know:

*The number of programs/applications that are starting up together with your computer. Try to reduce it with only the necessary programs that have to start up, Try these following steps:

1. Click Start up

2. Click Run

3. Type msconfig

4. click on start up tab

5. Then uncheck those unnecessary programs. Note: if you are not sure of a certain program maybe it would be better to leave it as it is.

6. Then finally click ok and restart your computer

*Note: In installing programs in your computer remember to consider it’s necessity before you allow it to start up together with your computer.

*Note: When your connected to the internet, many programs in certain websites are trying to install themselves automatically in your computer or even infect your computer with viruses so better be aware. Try to have some browser extensions like site advisor that will prevent you from entering dangerous websites.

*Another thing to improve your start-up and pc performance is to reduce the unnecessary things like visual effects that are probably good to the eyes but unnecessary.

To reduce visual effects:

1. Right click My Computer

2. Click properties

3. Click the advanced tab

4. In the performance section click settings

5. the uncheck the following;

-Fade or slide menus into view

-Fade or slide ToolTips into view

-Fade out menu items after clicking

-Show Shadows under menus

-Slide open combo boxes

-Slide taskbar buttons

-Use a background image for each folder type

-Use common tasks in folders

6. Then finally click ok
