make the computer run faster? In addition to some conventional system optimization methods, here is a description of the method, there are hardware aspects, there are also system optimization methods, there are also software. Optimized method. 1) Increase the memory of the system. If you are 1G memory, you can upgrade to 2G.2) You can install Ultra-133 hard disk expansion card or ATA hard disk with larger cache in the system. Effectively reduce system startup time and read time. 3) Upgrade the motherboard and graphics card drivers and upgrade the BIOS. 4) The system disk uses the NTFS format file system. You can view it like this: Double-click "My Computer", right-click on the C: drive and select "Properties" to check the file system type. If it is FAT32, convert it to NTFS. Conversion method: Back up all important data first, then select "Run" in the "Start" menu, and enter CMD to confirm. At the prompt, type CONVERT C : /FS :NTFS and Enter. In this process, it is best not to abort midway and ensure that there are no viruses in the system. 5) Turn off the file indexing function. The file indexing service extracts information from a large number of files on the hard disk and creates a "keyword index". If there are many files on the hard disk, this function can speed up the search for information from these files. But it takes a lot of time for the system to create this index, and many people will not use the index to find files, so this feature can be turned off. To do this, double-click "My Computer", right-click on the hard drive and the subfolders below, select "Properties", and cancel "Use Index to quickly find files". If a warning or error message appears (such as "reject access"), click "Ignore". 6) Frequently empty the Windows pre-read folder (Windows\\Prefetch). Windows stores frequently used data in a pre-read folder, which can greatly speed up the reading when you need to use the data again. But after a long time, there will be a large amount of garbage data that is no longer used in this folder, which will increase the reading time of Windows and affect the system performance. 7) Run the disk cleanup program once a month to delete temporary and useless files. Method: Double-click "My Computer", right-click on the C: drive, select "Properties", and click the "Disk Cleanup" button. 8) Double-click the IDE ATA/ATAPI controller in "Device Manager" and set the transfer mode of all connected devices to use DMA (if available) in the Primary/Secondary IDE Channel. 9) Update the wiring. After adopting the new type of hard disk, you should replace the 80-line Ultra-133 cable for all IDE devices at the same time. If only one hard disk is installed, the hard disk should be installed at the top of the cable. Do not install the interface in the middle of the cable. Otherwise, a signal abnormality may occur. For Ultra DMA hard drives, these anomalies can affect the best performance of the drive. 10) Clear all spyware (spyware). There are a lot of free software, like AdAware, that can do this. After the removal, the software containing spyware will not work properly. If you really need one of the software, reinstall it again. 11) Remove unnecessary programs from the startup group. This is a good system optimization method. Method: Select "Run" in the menu "Run", enter "msconfig", enter the "Start" tab, and cancel the items that you do not want to load at system startup. . For projects that are not certain, check out the "WinTasks Process Library" (process library), which contains descriptions of known system processes, applications, and spyware. Can also be found in google and other WEB search engines. 12) Delete unnecessary and unused programs. Go to the "Add/Remove Programs" item in the Control Panel. 13) Close all unnecessary animations and active desktops. Method: Click the "system" icon in the Control Panel, go to the "Advanced" tab, "Performance" "Set", & "Visual Effects" tab, check " Customize the "single box to set the relevant user interface properties to disabled. 14) Use Tweak-XP software to edit the system registry to further improve performance. 15) Regularly visit the Microsoft Windows Update site to download all updates marked with the "Critical" logo. 16) Update anti-virus software weekly. It is best to install only one anti-virus software in the system. Installing multiple sets of software will adversely affect performance. 17) Install fonts as little as possible. Too many fonts will make reading the fonts too long, which will make the system slower. 18) Try to make the computer hard disk partition less. Windows XP's NTFS file system is more efficient to run on a larger partition. Previously, people had to partition the hard disk without having to format the entire hard disk in order to facilitate data organization or reinstall the operating system. In the Windows XP NTFS file system, reinstalling the operating system eliminates the need to reformat the partition, and data organization can be done through folders. For example, you don't need to put a lot of data on a different D: disk, you can create a folder named "D drive", and the data is placed in this folder without affecting system performance. To a good organizational role. 19) Test the integrity of the memory module. It is recommended to use the free program MemTest86, first use this program to make a boot disk. After booting the computer with this disk, the program will run 10 different tests on the memory stick, and each test will be performed 3 times. If you encounter an error during the test, turn off the computer, unplug one of the memory modules (if there are multiple), and retest. The memory stick that is still broken, put on a good one. 20) If a CD or DVD burner is installed on your computer, sometimes upgrading the driver will make the recording faster. 21) Cancel unnecessary services. The XP system calls a number of services that users may not use at all. These services not only affect the speed of operation, but also the security of the protection system. Therefore, you can disable unnecessary system services as needed. Method: Select "Run" in the "Start" menu, enter "Services.msc"Open"Service Management Console", start or stop the service by changing the startup type of the service, but be careful Those are system services that cannot be deactivated. 22) If you feel that Windows's single-window browser is slow, you can improve it by opening "My Computer", clicking "Tools"->"Folder Options"->" ;View ", select "Use a separate process to open the folder window". This prevents a slower device from affecting the response speed of the user interface. 23) Open the case and clean the dust and debris, at least once a year. Also check that all fans are working properly and that the capacitors on the motherboard are not expanding or leaking. After using the above method, the computer runs faster. The operating system is also like a human being. It is necessary to always "sports", that is, the computer should be maintained frequently to maintain good performance.
