Windows Vista operating system to speed up the startup and running speed is actually very simple, the following ten tricks can give you a lot of help.

1. Update your hardware driver

For example, graphics card, motherboard display chip and so on. This is very important, because starting my own vista does not support the Aero theme, after updating the motherboard display chip. So check to see if your hardware has driver updates.

2, cancel the Windows part of the program

Open the control panel, select the uninstall program, click on the left side of the list to open or close the Windows function, then clear unnecessary function options, when the mouse moves up There will be a function prompt.

I left only: XPS VIEwer, removable storage management, and remote differential compression. After the setup is complete, you need to restart. First cancel the following steps and say.

3, using Vista optimization master

The first professional software optimization Windows Vista software tools, known as the Swiss Army knife in the Window Vista system, more than 400 super settings, cool!

5, Turn off the autorun program

Start menu Enter msconfig and select Enable, which is a list of programs that run automatically with the computer. I only checked Windows Defender and sound card programs (4.1 sound card does not open only two channels, driver bugs). Of course,

anti-virus software can not be canceled.

6. Close the system tray program

In addition to the randomly started program, some programs add icons to the system tray, but quite a few are not used, such as the network. Connections, QuickTime icons, etc., can be removed in the previous step, and here you can also right-click on the options to not run automatically, or not loaded.

7. Use ReadyBoost

If you have a large-capacity USB flash memory, insert it in the right-click property and use it as virtual memory, which is faster than the virtual memory of the hard disk. many. Toshiba has a new 16G, and I am happy to get it. But if you have that money, you might as well buy the memory directly.

8, Accelerating System Interface

Vista's advertising wow is to show off how gorgeous it is, but the price is high configuration and high system consumption, turning off some effects will speed up a lot. Right-click on Personalization, uncheck "Enable Transparency" in Windows Color and Appearance, or simply replace Aero as Vista Basic or Standard. The Sidebar is off, it's useless. Right-click on the computer, select Properties, click on "Advanced System Settings" on the left, "Advanced", "Settings", "Visual Effects" in this one can be closed, and it will be unsightly to open again.

9, Advanced Settings

If your motherboard and hard drive support SATA, then set the advanced effects in the properties of the drive, I did not. . .

update: Right click on the computer in the desktop or start menu, select "Device Manager" on the left, find the hard drive that supports SATA in the list disk drive, right click and select Properties, in "Policy" Select "Enable advanced performance" in the middle, of course, the above "Enable Cache" is also selected.

Turn off the Vista auto-scan drive and warn when the capacity is too small: back up the registry, then start the menu and type regedit, KEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\PolicIEs, right click and select New Item, Name For Explorer, under it, right click and select New "DWord (32-bit) value", the name is NoLowDiskSpaceChecks, double-click to modify the value to "1".

10, defragment disk

The author recommends using AusLogics to defragment the hard disk, if you usually use the computer to copy and delete what is very frequent, it is still every few months to get it, very effective Just like throwing things at home, it takes a long time to find it, of course, it is slow, so it should be sorted regularly.
