;

6. Open “ My Computer - Right click on the system disk - “ Properties - & ldquo; Disk Cleanup - & ldquo; Other Options - Click on the System Restore column "Clean - Select & ldquo; Yes - ok

7, after the various software and hardware are installed properly, in fact XP There are very few when you need to update the file. Delete the system backup file: Start → Run → sfc.exe /purgecache nearly 3xxM. (The purpose of this command is to immediately clear "Windows file protection" file cache, free up the space it occupies.)

8. Delete the dll file under windowssystem32dllcache (minus 200——300mb) This is an alternate dll file. You can do this as long as you have copied the installation files.

9, XP will automatically back up the hardware driver, but after the hardware driver is installed correctly, the possibility of hardware changes is not great, so you can also consider deleting this backup, the file is located in the windowsdriver cachei386 directory The name is driver.cab, you can delete it directly, usually this file is 74M.

10, clear system temporary files: the system's temporary files are generally stored in two locations: a Temp folder in the Windows installation directory; the other is x:Documents and Settings"username"Local SettingsTemp Folder (Y: is the partition where the system is located). Files in both locations can be deleted directly.

11. Clear Temporary Internet Files: Regularly delete a large number of temporary Internet files generated during Internet access, which will save a lot of hard disk space. Open IE, select "Internet Options" from the "Tools" menu, select the "General" tab in the pop-up dialog box, and click " in the "Internet Temporary Files" Delete the file " button and in the pop-up "Delete Files" dialog box, select the "Delete all offline content" checkbox and click the "OK" button.
