Speed Up Startup

Speeding up your startup is a good idea because it can make your computer load faster when it is starting up or when you opening it. So, you don't really have to wait for a couple of minute if it is slow like my old computer. OK, to do this you simply just:
  1. Go to start
  2. Click run
  3. Type in 'msconfig' in the box
  4. Click startup tab
  5. Then, unchecked the program that you don't want to run when you starting up.
This trick is good because it will make the program a bit faster if the program run in a low memory but if it run in a high amount of memory it'll make your system run much more faster

5 Ways To Make your Computer Faster

What it Do?

It will fast your computer and give you better performance. It will take less delay for loading your stuff like your icon desktop and many more.

The Way:

Remove your font for speed, this will give you a little bit of speed. Especially 'TrueType', if you struggle to find it its the green 0 which have bracket on their word say 'TrueType'. Create a new folder where you can put it, in case if you need other fonts. You could called the folder 'FontsBackup'

  1. Open control panel(classic view)
  2. Open fonts folder
  3. Move fonts you don't need to a temporary directory (e.g. C:\FontsBackup) just in case you need or want to bring a few of them back. The more fonts you uninstall, the more system resources you will gain.
Remove the desktop picture can make it faster because it consumes fair amount of memory and can slow down your system. Removing it can improve your performance. You don't have to remove your desktop background if you don't want to.

  1. Right click on desktop and select properties
  2. Select the desktop tab
  3. In the background window select none
  4. Click ok
You do recognise when you searching a file through my computer it takes a bit of delay. This is because Windows XP search network folders and printer everytime you open Windows Explorer which take a bit of time. To really speed up this kind of problem, do the following
  1. Click start then select my computer
  2. Click tools menu at the top bar
  3. Then select the view tab
  4. Unchecked the Automatically search for network folders and printers check box
  5. Click Apply
  6. Click ok
  7. Reboot
Windows XP can look nice but viewing your all visual items can waste the time delay and your system resources. To Optimise:

  1. Go to Start
  2. Click Control Panel
  3. Click System
  4. Click Advanced tab
  5. In the Performance tab click Settings
  6. Leave only the following ticked:
  7. - Show shadows under menus
    - Show shadows under mouse pointer
    - Show translucent selection rectangle
    - Use drop shadows for icons labels on the desktop
    - Use visual styles on windows and buttons
If you give your pagefile a fixed size it saves the operating system from needing to resize the page file.

  1. Right click on My Computer and select Properties
  2. Select the Advanced tab
  3. Under Performance choose the Settings button
  4. Select the Advanced tab again and under Virtual Memory select Change
  5. Highlight the drive containing your page file and make the initial Size of the file the same as the Maximum Size of the file.
Windows XP sizes the page file to about 1.5X the amount of actual physical memory by default. While this is good for systems with smaller amounts of memory (under 512MB) it is unlikely that a typical XP desktop system will ever need 1.5 X 512MB or more of virtual memory. If you have less than 512MB of memory, leave the page file at its default size. If you have 512MB or more, change the ratio to 1:1 page file size to physical memory size.
